The Piligians maintain a residence in Hutchinson and recently made a substantial contribution toward the creation of a "universally accessible playground" in the future 43rd Street Park.

In honor of Mrs. Piligian's presentation at the Annual Meeting, the Chamber will make a $10,000 donation to the playground.
