Love the concept, and the theme fits right in to Pittsburgh's image as a 'green' city. Kids creating and playing eco-treasure hunt games--sounds like good creative summer fun.
This is a truly exciting idea. The use of theatrical techniques intertwined with technology has the potential to create a real breakthrough in the medium. Mixing art, eceology and gaming is just a fantastic idea.
If I had kids, this is exactly the sort of fun, purposeful, thought-provoking way I'd want them to be learning about responsible citizenship while being creative.
I know that my daughter would love something like this and it would be a great learning experience as well. It's not always easy to put those things together! Sounds like a terrific concept.
This project is very exciting! It will reach kids right where they are and give them a local, concrete, engaging way to address what can seem to be an overwhelming problem. More please!
This game sounds great. I like the idea of getting people to move through a city and view areas of ecological importance. I'd love to see this game evolve to occur in other urban areas.
Not only an incredibly creative concept - but what a great way to encourage children (and their parents) to become involved in an innovative and positive program. Would really love to see this happen! Could certainly be a something the city would be proud to spotlight.
What a fabulous way to capture the imagination and energy of young people and encourage them to become aware of the multiple issues in their community - now and in the future. Possibly generate the kind of ideas that will provide solutions. Hope this becomes a reality - and a pilot program for other such creative projects.
The arts are undervalued as a necessity in the development of young people. This is a great way to bring the arts together with technology youth are already using in a way that will increase their commitment to their community.
This is an excellent idea and deserves support. As a parent, someone in the arts, and someone concerned about the world, I think EcoPlayGround is tremendously exciting.
By far, one of the most creative concepts I've encountered. Would love to see this in action in Pittsburgh. I think other urban areas would be interested in the idea as well.

It looks like a great collaboration between history and drama, including in the important lessons around ecology and sustainability. Well done!
I really hope this launches and gets to be applied to cities worldwide as this is such a great way for communication, learning and leading
