Walk and Read at Strang Park

The Walk and Read at Strang Park is posted year-round in partnership with Johnson County Library, Johnson County Department of Health and Environment and the City of Overland Park. This initiative features two stories displayed along a paved path behind Central Resource Library at Strang Park. Participants can enjoy a leisurely walk while reading the stories — one leading from the Library to the playground and the other from the playground back to the Library. Dates are subject to change due to weather.
