THIS WEEKEND
Vinyl Swap Meet Weekend

Last month, I attended my first vinyl swap meet / show in Maize. Others were curious about it and I promised I’d pass it on when the next one was scheduled to take place.

Well, it’s around the corner.

The next one takes place this Sunday, February 1 from Noon to 3:30pm at the Knights of Columbus Hall at 1200 W. 15th Ave in Hutchinson, KS.
