Walk and Read at Bluejacket Park

Take a leisurely walk along the paths of Bluejacket Park for a unique and enriching experience that combines physical activity, quality family time and inspiring storytelling. The Overland Park Parks and Recreation Department and Johnson County Libraries have partnered to create a walk and read at the park featuring two powerful stories, "Ruby, Head High" and "Dear Ruby, Hear Our Hearts." These stories celebrate the courage and resilience of Ruby Bridges, a pivotal young figure in the civil rights movement. This is the perfect opportunity to engage in meaningful discussions about activism, anti-racism and anti-bullying.
