Mission Statement: The purpose of GAPKC is to provide a support network and a connection to Guatemalan culture for adoptive parents and their children through education, fellowship and assistance for those who are adopting or have adopted children from Guatemala as we grow together as families. Announcements July 18 (Saturday) - GAPKC at Loose Park Wading/Spray Park 11:00 AM - 1:00 PM Loose Park (Kansas City, MO) (Wornall & 51st St) Join us at Loose Park to splash in the spray park. Meet at the wading pool/spray park. Look for the Guatemalan Flag! Bring a picnic lunch. The "SprayGround" is a collection of water jets that spray upward from a concrete slab, complete with various water toys. For parents, there is a covered bench near the water jets, but you might want to bring your own chairs, also. Remember to have your children wear swimsuits, and also remember to bring flip-flops and towels. The "SprayGround" is on the west side of the park, south of the Rose Garden, and near the tennis courts. Additional things to do or see at Loose Park: Play at the playground. Walk the path. Visit the Rose Garden. Loose Park Information    (Map) Hope to see you there! This site last updated June 10, 2009
