Kelloggs Plant A Seed Vote For Your Favorite Field

Back in January I did a post about a really cool program to help rebuild the playing fields around the United States.  So many of then were in pretty bad shape and in an effort to rebuild some of these playing fields, came the launch of the Frosted Flakes Plant A Seed campaign.  They realized the need for these playing field as a way to continue to build community and morale.

Kellogg’s Frosted Flakes Earn Your Stripes program initiated a call-to-action for a national field renovation. Since that time, thousands of fields were nominated some with as many as 700,000 supporters! Those fields have now been narrowed down to 100 finalists and your vote will help determine the winning fields.  The semifinalist fields were chosen based on the feasibility of the field makeover, the location and age of the field, how often it gets used, how many events take place, what teams use it, the number of other athletic fields in the community, the demand, condition, and the impact a field renovation would have on the community.

From May 1st through the 31st, you can vote for your favorite semifinalist field at www.frostedflakes.com and give communities a gift of a lifetime.  I cannot think of a better thing to vote for, because it brings people together, helps build self esteem and encourages growth, and makes a safe place for our children to play.  Many of the fields that were nominated, are in desperate need of repair, new equipment, and a complete overhaul.  So we should all get out there and vote because it is an opportunity to change lives!  It doesn’t cost anything other than a minute of your time to make a difference.
