An effort to improve the playground at CSA Lincoln Elementary School is being recognized by Heritage Fund: The Community Foundation of Bartholomew County with the annual James A. Henderson fundraising award.

The LInden Project is a group of parents and volunteers working to upgrade the playground, turning it into an outdoor learning environment. In partnership with Bartholomew Consolidated Schools, the project has raised more than half a million dollars toward the renovations.

The Heritage Fund donated $2,500 to the award-winning effort, through the Bartholomew Consolidated School Foundation.
