Our belated Kansas Day celebration on Saturday night was a HUGE success. I'll check with Rocky to see if he has a final head count, but about 30 people came and while the majority were our friends from library land, there were at least a half dozen who came just because we billed it as a Kansas event!Rocky, Cindy and I joined forces to pull the thing together with relatively little planning, but it all seemed to work. We used the vacant yard space on the north side of the Olathe building. I made the sunflower dance floor, Rocky and Cindy contributed photos of Kansas and famous Kansans as well as a wonderful buffet table and Cindy and I worked on the layout of the party area. Throughout the evening (started at 6 p.m. SLT and the last person left about 8 p.m. SLT) people were encouraged to visit all three library buildings and they were surrounded on all sides by reminders of all things Kansas. Wouldn't be surprised if this becomes an annual event.
