Five members (one being the photographer) from the Community Foundation of Southeast Kansas journeyed to Cato, Kansas on Wednesday, August 6, to present grant money to the Cato Historical Preservation Association, Inc.. The “General Funds” grant was done by Cato member Marilyn Flagg.
The money will be used for supplies and three directional wooden signs with arrows pointed toward Cato. These signs will be made by Chad Cliffman of rural Ft. Scott.
Cato will host 600-700 school kids on Thursday, Nov. 6th and the annual Cato tour is scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 8th starting with registration in the Cato Christian Church at 9 a.m.
