Team REIL/Park and Recreation Supply of Union, Ill. worked with actor Matthew McConaughey and others in Houston, Texas to build a playground for hurricane Katrina victims who now live on Angel Lane.

Ten members of Team REIL, a distributor and installer of Miracle playground equipment departed Union, Ill. in August to travel to Houston, Texas. Team REIL made the trip to donate a playground system to residents of Angel Lane, all relocated survivors of hurricane Katrina, and to help residents with the community built playground.

With 65 families now living on Angel Lane, John Cederlund, president of Team REIL said, ?EUR??,,????'?????<

The playground, donated by Team REIL, was installed in a single day. Many residents of Angel Lane, Matthew McConaughey, actor and native Texan, and Roger Clemens, a Houston, Texas resident and professional baseball player for the Houston Astros, were all on-site helping with the construction process.






The kids and the crew begin to enjoy the fruits of the daylong labor it took to build the playground.
