Bike Across Kansas -- Be Our Guests!

A warm welcome to our friends from Bike Across Kansas! This Sunday, June 7th, over 850 bicyclists and support crews will be riding into Hodgeman County. We have a number of things for them to see and do while they're here...Haun Museum will be open from 3 to 8 p.m. (and they have the coolest antique bike on display)...the Historical Society will be on hand to serve Ice Water and Iced Tea, as well as making bags of homemade granola available for purchase. Hodgeman Nine, our Vintage Base Ball Team, will play an exhibition game on the HS Football Field at 5:00 p.m. The Lions Club has put together a "Roving Ice Cream Social" and will be "tooling around town" selling ice cream novelties...listen for the bell! Several local groups have banded together to serve dinner on Sunday night, as well as breakfast bright and early on Monday morning -- and, of course, our local restaurants are a great option as well.
I am excited...I've committed to riding with BAK on Monday morning as far as Hanston! It's only 11 miles, and I'll know more after Monday, but am already thinking that the entire BAK route might be a great goal to set for myself for next year!
