A partnership of volunteers building a racing-themed playground Thursday, May 4, dug, mixed and planted so quickly, they were able to reach the finish line ahead of schedule.

“They’re working so quickly,” said Caroline Counihan, spokesperson for The Home Depot. “They’ve just gone through it all so fast."

The playground is one of 10 to be built this year under The Home Depot's Racing to Play program. The program is a partnership between The Home Depot, Joe Gibbs Racing, and KaBOOM!, a non-profit organization whose mission is to "create a great place to play within walking distance of every child in North America."
