Community Spotlight

Its Spring Time!
Time for…..pumpkins? You read that right. With help from area businesses, the Rugby Chamber and Prairie Village Museum are gearing up for Rugby’s newest project. They plan to open a pumpkin patch and corn maze near the museum in October. Let the planning begin! The pumpkin patch and corn maze will sit just to the west of the museum buildings on the museum grounds. The plan is to have it open to visitors for five weekends in October. They realize October is a long way away, but in order to make some of the purchases, they need community help now. A needed $20,000 has already been cut in half by events put on since January. In addition to the pumpkins, funds are needed for a barrel train, corn maze, and peat pots to start seeds over the large swath of land. Other items still in the idea stage include a horse-drawn wagon to transport visitors from the museum parking lot to the pumpkin patch. Local businesses have started to sponsor and will be have the opportunity to if they haven't already. All sponsors will receive recognition. It wont go unnoticed.
