Geary County Historical Society will host an open house at St. Joseph’s Historic Church this Saturday, May 7th, from 10:00a.m. to 1:00 p.m. St. Joseph’s is an ongoing renovation project for the Historical Society, most recently including masonry work and added electricity. Anyone interested in the building, or the restoration project is welcome to explore the building, learn more about the church and cemetery and enjoy refreshments at the open house.
The building, which was originally built in 1872 by local Irish Catholic settlers, and was rebuilt in 1910, is located at 13497 Lower McDowell Rd, just 1.5 miles south of I-70 off exit 307.
