In December 2016, the Clayview Country Club in Kansas City, Missouri was the first site in the United States to host an event.

The Play-Day event was held for a group of 10 children who - by no fault of their own - were unable to remain in their homes and were placed in The Salvation Army Children's Shelter due to either a family crisis or child abuse, including issues of physical, sexual, emotional and psychological abuse, or severe neglect.
