Ag Heritage Park, in Alta Vista, plans for a full day of activities to celebrate Alta Vista's Old Settler's Day, Sept. 22. Ag Heritage Park also salutes the town of Alta Vista on its 125th anniversary.
Old-time corn picking, shelling and horse-powered ear corn grinding demonstrations are planned Saturday afternoon. Also on the Park schedule is a quilt show, open to anyone and any type of quilt, vintage or new. The Park will be showing the new barn quilt block to be displayed on the main museum building, as well. Ag Heritage Park tractors will participate in the Old Settler's Day parade downtown at 11 a.m.
More details of the day's events will be published soon, and you may follow the schedule on Facebook, or call 620-767-2714.
