🌟 Historic Bus Tour in Topeka! 🌟
Every seat on the bus was filled as our residents enjoyed a special historic tour of Topeka, led by Bob Totten, Executive Director of the National Historic Society.
Bob shared fascinating stories about many local landmarks, including the former site of Capper Junior High, Gage Park, Alf Landon’s house, the State Hospital, the Ritchie House, and more.
Our final stop was at House to Home, Bob and his wife’s store at Fairlawn Plaza. Residents were warmly welcomed with cake, served by his wife and staff, and had the chance to browse and shop.
It was a truly wonderful trip, filled with learning, laughter, and appreciation for the rich history of Topeka. Our residents loved discovering new things about the community they know and love. ❤️
