Sen. Marshall visits Osawatomie as city pushes for national park designation

The city of Osawatomie continues to gain more traction, both locally and in Washington D.C., on its goal of gaining a national park designation. In May, the Miami County Commission approved a resolution supporting the city’s request to establish the John Brown National Historic Park Site. The commissioners also agreed to give $22,000 to the city to assist in purchasing property for parking surrounding the John Brown Ghost Cabin at the Adair Homestead about two miles west of John Brown Memorial Park.
