Burlingame Elementary students spent celebrated Kansas Day Jan.
29 with visits from a variety of presenters at the Schuyler Museum.
Gary Buek, Burlingame (right) demonstrated grain-grinding; Gilbert
“Bud” Masters showcased hand-made knives and canes;
and Donna Bartee demonstrated a hand-pumed washing machine.
Jack Williamson, Uniserv director for the the Kansas National Education
Association and member of the Holmes Brigade Civil War living history
group, presented Bleeding Kansas as a free soldier.
“The kids have been great,” Williamson said. “If
I lose their attention, I can fire off one of the caps and I’ve
got it right back.”
Jan Kohler was also a presenter.
