I love a road trip.  Earlier this month I was lucky enough to make it down to Austin, Texas to participate with board members, agency and union reps and parents as we celebrated the opening of a new play space at the center. 

 A ribbon cutting ceremony was held at the IRS Service Center, Future Stars Child Development Center, Austin, Texas, on October 6, 2010 to celebrate the opening of the new 1,000 sq. ft. gross motor skills/multi-purpose room.  This much needed addition will allow children a comfortable play space during those hot Texas days and ozone alerts that prevent them from being able to play outside.  The space is currently being used as swing space for two classrooms until renovations in the main center are completed, at which time it will revert to a full time play room. The new addition and renovations under way in the main center will accomplish several goals – expand the existing center, provide infrastructure upgrades, and meet all ADA, NAEYC and GSA facility requirements. 

 Congrats to all involved in this project and special kudos to the center staff for doing a great job working around construction.  It will be worth the wait and hassles as the renovated space will be a great place to work.
