Part Two
Pie and Kansas Jeopardy
K – 5 Activity Day
Hey kids: Join us on Monday, January 24th from 4:30 to 5:30 to celebrate Kansas’ 150th Birthday. We’ll be grinding wheat into flour (just like the first settlers did) and tossing “cow patties” (oh my!) There will be special crafts and treats, too. Don’t miss all the fun.
Pie and Jeopardy
Do you know what pie flavor was illegal to eat on Sunday in some parts of Kansas? Perhaps you can find out on Saturday, January 29th as Atchison Library celebrates Kansas’ 150th birthday with a Pie Bake-off and Kansas Jeopardy Contest. Call Cheryl at 367-1902 for details.
