A sign of hope: Summer recreation registration opens in PV April 1

Dear God above is this weather awful. Just awful awful awful.

Awful.

So if you, like me, need a reminder that spring weather is just around the corner — it is, right? — look to the good people at the city of Prairie Village, who open registration for summer (that’s right, SUMMER) programs April 1:
