Let Them Be Kids - Hampton

"LET THEM BE KIDS" is an all volunteer, non-profit organization created to build community capacity on the grassroots level; while building playgrounds, skate parks and fitness parks across Canada. These projects leave a legacy of community members who are inspired and better equipped to lay a strong foundation for a brighter tomorrow.

Our entire community was saddened by the accidental passing of Jeremy Robert Shaw on Dec 4th, 2009. Jeremy was the beloved son of Chuck and Marie Shaw. Jeremy attended Dr A T Leatherbarrow School in his Primary years and is remembered fondly as a very active young boy. Jeremy lived in the community his whole life. He had a firm handshake and a warm smile for everyone he met. He embodied the spirit of outdoor enthusiasm, enjoying 4- wheeling, snowmobiling, camping and fishing. He was a testimonial to the quality lifestyle that he and his family fostered and contributed to in the Hampton community. He was a loving husband to his wife Amy, and proud father to his son Will.



It is with deepest regard for the entire Shaw Family, and in gratitude for all that they have contributed to our community over the past decade that we respectfully dedicate this playground to the memory of Jeremy Shaw. We hope that the entire community will be inspired by the Shaw's continued involvement and commitment to worthy community projects that will leave a legacy for our future generations.
