SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, Calif. – Following the launch of their partnership announced in late 2014, Yokohama Tire Corp. (YTC) and KaBOOM!, national non-profit organization dedicated to bringing balanced and active play into the daily lives of all kids, has built a new playground in Southern California.

Yokohama joined forces with KaBOOM! and community groups Habitat for Humanity of Orange County, NeighborWorks Orange County and about 200 volunteers to build a fun, safe playground for local kids.
