“

Fitness, Community, Activity & YOU!

My husband Steve and I moved to Olathe a year ago from Iowa and feel so fortunate to have found the Olathe Community Center. An atmosphere of friendliness exists throughout the entire facility and begins the moment you walk in and are greeted with a “hello.” The Fitness and Wellness Staff are experts and always willing to help assist you. If you haven’t tried the Silver Sneakers classes be sure to try them–I go as often as I can. The classes and the teachers are GREAT! Thank you Olathe Community center for helping make Olathe a special community in which to live.” ~ Margie

SCHOLARSHIP POLICY GOAL

Making recreation programs available and affordable for all citizens is a goal of the City of Olathe. Most recreation programs carry a registration fee to help offset the funding needed. To make recreation programs more affordable to low and moderate income residents, the city offers recreation scholarships.

All registrants must be approved for the scholarship program in advance of a class or activity in order to receive scholarship benefits. Anyone registering or attending a class prior to scholarship approval will not be issued a refund or credit based on scholarship rates. All participants must be registered into a class with payment submitted prior to the start date of a class or activity.

Did you know...

MAHAFFIE “(The facility) is just like it was in stagecoach days. The staff was wonderful! They were very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions. We even got to ride a stagecoach!”

MAHAFFIE Since 1858, the Mahaffie Stagecoach Stop and Farm has played an important role in the history of Olathe. James B. and Lucinda Mahaffie came to Olathe in 1858 and soon developed a 320acre farm located just a mile outside of town.

Mr. Mahaffie was first and foremost a farmer, but he was also a smart businessman. In 1865, construction of the Mahaffie’s stone house was completed, with a lower level designed to serve as a kitchen and dining hall for stagecoach passengers. Today, the Mahaffie Stagecoach Stop and Farm remains the only stagecoach stop open to the public on the Santa Fe Trail. The site operates year-round as a working 19th century farm, complete with horses, oxen, sheep, goats, pigs, chickens and a cow. All the animals are heritage breeds from the 19th century. 1860s living history activities are available Wednesday - Sunday, from Memorial Day (May 30) until Labor Day (September 5). The site is owned by the City of Olathe and managed by the Parks & Recreation Department, to provide visitors of all ages a first-hand experience of daily life on an 1860s farm and a connection to the nationally significant Mahaffie story and Olathe’s rich history. Activities and admission fees vary by season. Visit Mahaffie.org or call 913-971-5111 for more information.

Admission $7/adults $5/children (ages 5-11) *Olathe residents receive $2/off admission when full living history activities are available Wednesday-Sunday, Memorial Day (May 30) through Labor Day (Sept. 5) Living History activities offered weekends only beginning September 10 through October 30.
