A look back at a special moment in Shawnee’s history!

On September 26, the Washington School time capsule was opened, giving us a glimpse into the past and preserving a piece of our community’s history. Thank you to everyone who helped make this celebration possible and to those who continue to help preserve the stories and memories that make Shawnee special.

We’re excited to share this moment with the community as we continue looking ahead to the future of Farrall Park!
