The recent Geary County Historical Society held their annual ice cream social in September. In the Society's newsletter the Executive Director of the Society Heather Hagedorn said it&nbsp;one of the most successful Ice Cream Socials that they&nbsp;have ever held. This year, they added a car show. There were also bands.

The ice cream social serves as a fundraiser for the Historical Society.

&nbsp;October is Oral History Month. Every Tuesday throughout the month, you can visit the museum from 1-4pm and share your story. All oral histories will be recorded and placed in the archives.

October 15th is also Match Day. If you have ever considered donating to the Historical Society, Match Day is a good time because all donations between $25 and $1000 are eligible for a 50% match, which means your $100 donation becomes $150 for the non-profit of your choice. 

Donations can be made via mail or in person at the Municipal Building or online at gearymatchday.com on October 15th.
