Optional Activity with $10 fee: “Imperfect Peace Witness Tour”
- Central Kansas “peace heroes” had complex reasons for standing up to their nationalist neighbors during WWI. Be part of the 2:30-5 pm bus tour Saturday, July 27, exploring area locations important to the story of John J. Schrag (nicknamed “Crickehannes”). He experienced persecution for his faith in Christ and maybe for other reasons, too. Come learn the deeper stories with your host Brian Stucky. Your $10 fee helps support the work of Mennonite Library and Archives, so stories like these, and many more, can be preserved for future generations. All tour-goers will gather in the Kauffman Museum parking lot and travel together in an air-conditioned charter bus. $10 for those who also register for WDC Annual Assembly. $20 for those who just plan to go on the afternoon tour. We are raising money for Mennonite Library and Archives after expenses, so more stories like this may be told. Note that you will be getting out of the bus at several points along the tour. To join this activity, be sure to mark this selection on the registration form.
Register by July 12. Payment is required with registration. A needs-based discount ($48) is available for those for whom the registration fee is prohibitive. Cancellations made by July 12 can request a refund (less a small fee); no refunds given after July 12.
