In March, interns Caysi Gatts and Aeriel Dodson operated a booth at the Kansas National Guard Kid’s Carnival at the Armed Forces Reserve Center in Topeka. They led children’s activities such as wooden leaf painting and science related-activities. The booth was sponsored by Kansas: Operation Military Kids. More than 70 children participated in activities like face painting, a candy walk, bounce houses and potato sack races. Following the carnival, families and children attended the “Rappin’ Roy & Reggie Reg the Magic Man” show.
