Library in the Park and DashKCK
From Kim Woolery
The 3rd Annual Library in the Park will be September 9 from 10-2 pm at Big Eleven Lake. We???ll have local bands, a family movie on our big screen, and the big tent will feature the best movies, music, and television shows our staff recommends. The taco contest is also returning with 5 delicious taquerias around KCK. Katheryn Russell-Brown, author of Little Melba and Her Big Trombone, will be joining us for a book signing. Work up an appetite for the tacos at the DashKCK 5K at 8:30 that morning. All students 17 and under can participate for free. Visit libraryinthepark.org and dashkck.com for more details.
