Day of PRIDE 2012
The Power of YOU!

Day of PRIDE 2011

Larned PRIDE Community Garden

2011 Day of PRIDE

Mark your calendars for Saturday, June 2, 2012 for DAY OF PRIDE which will be held in Osage County, KS. The option to pay by credit card is still available this year! 

REGISTER NOW ONLINE or by printing the PDF Version of the BROCHURE!

Registration will be $40, and will include morning snacks, air conditioned bus tour. We start in Melvern and make our way to Osage City to visit the City Park and Depot Museum and learn how Osage City PRIDE and the Chamber of Commerce have worked together to enhance national capital. We will then return to Melvern for the Awards Luncheon at the Melvern Community Building for another opportunity to learn about Melverns projects. 

The tour will then drive through Lyndon and view their community garden project, followed by a trip to Overbrook to see how they have transformed their park into a place that fits the recreational needs of community members of all ages! 

There will be an optional activity at the end of the day for those interested in walking the Melvern River Front Trail and learn about Geocaching!

The Kansas PRIDE Program...
Building Better Communities

The Kansas PRIDE Program is a partnership of K-State Research and Extension, the Kansas Department of Commerce, and Kansas PRIDE, Inc.

PRIDE is dedicated to serving communities across the state to encourage and assist local government and volunteers in making their community a better place to live and work.

Through the PRIDE program, local communities identify what they would like to preserve, create, or improve for their future. Then, working with the resources of K-State Research & Extension and the Kansas Department of Commerce, community volunteers pull together to create their ideal community future. To learn more about the Kansas PRIDE Program, we invite you to look through the resources and links available at this website, or contact the PRIDE staff.
