Columbus Blue Jackets Foundation gives back with new playground

COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) -- There is a new place to gather and play for Columbus kids, courtesy of the Columbus Blue Jackets.

The Jackets Foundation spent the past two days constructing a hockey-themed playground at the Ward Family YCMA on Woodland Avenue. This marks the 13th playground the team has funded throughout central Ohio.

"A couple of days ago if you would've come here, there was a really sad looking playground," Andee Cochren, executive director of the foundation, said.
