We believe all playgrounds using public funds should be built to be accessible to all. Friends of Clemyjontri was founded to raise money and provide financial support for the park's needs outside of the Fairfax County budget.
In 2010, Friends of Clemyjontri raised funds to help purchase and install Virginia's first Liberty Swing, the world's only wheelchair accessible swing. The innovative swing also features a built-in seat for children without wheelchairs who still require a seatbelt. In 2011, we donated a musical drum circle of instruments with an audience bench.
In April 2012, Friends of Clemyjontri held the 2nd Annual Concert in the Park event which had raised funds to help purchase and install a permanent 900 square foot tent at the park, affording much needed shade for playground users as well as providing an additional location for event use and rental.
