Museums of Marysville, Kansas

Ron Wilson, Poet Lariat

We would like to thank everyone who joined us for an exciting and informative afternoon on Sunday, March 12 at the Helvering Center in Marysville, KS. Ron Wilson, a spellbinding and poetic humorist, took us on a journey through the American West with his program, Trails and Tales, which included a special focus on Pony Express history and interactive activities.

​

Ron was an engaging and entertaining speaker, and we all learned something new about Kansas history, cowboy culture, and the fascinating history of the Pony Express. We hope that you had a great time and gained a new appreciation for this iconic part of Western lore.

​

If you were unable to attend the event or want to relive the experience, we have uploaded the video of Ron's presentation to YouTube.

The Pony Express Barn and Museum in Marysville, KS sponsored the event. The board thanks everyone who helped make it a success. We look forward to bringing more informative and engaging speakers to our community in the future.
