Atchison is known as a hotbed of paranormal activity. The McInteer Villa is still one of the most unusual and picturesque houses built in Atchison. Haunted occurrences at the Villa. Fact? Hoax? Tour the house, and then judge for yourself.

This trip includes round-trip transportation by charter bus; tour of The Amelia Earhart Birthplace Museum; tour of The Haunted 1889 McInteer Villa; private banquet at Paolucci's Restaurant; wine tasting at Riverwood Winery on the way home and staff escort.

The Y is working to help ensure that our community has access to fresh, nutritious food through Mobile Pantry food distribution programs in partnership with Harvesters. The programs address a growing need for those unsure where their next meal will come from.
Participants stay in their vehicles while volunteers load fresh produce, canned goods and a variety of other non-perishable items into their vehicles. All in need are welcome. The Mobile Food Pantry at the Olathe Family YMCA occurs on the first Wednesday of each month.
The group will discuss "Fly Away," by Kristin Hannah. A single, tragic choice and a middle-of-the-night phone call will bring these women together and set them on a poignant, powerful journey of redemption. Each has lost her way, and they will need each one another---and maybe a miracle---to transform their lives. An emotionally complex, heart-wrenching novel about love, motherhood, loss, and new beginnings, Fly Away reminds us that where there is life, there is hope, and where there is love, there is forgiveness.
You are welcome to bring your lunch, snacks or a guest with you. *You must have your own copy of the book*

Suddenly awash with the starlets and production people of the roaring 1920s, the huge house has never seen so much action in its existence.
