Stafford County Museum announces its participation in the 2025 Kansas Tourism Sunflower Summer program. Visitors should come to the office in the museum library located at 100 N. Main Street, Stafford, directly across the street from what used to be Stafford Mercantile.

The Sunflower Summer Program is a benefit for Kansas families with school-aged children, pre-K through Grade 12, to encourage them to explore, and fall in love with Kansas. The program is designed to give affordable access to tourism attractions across the state and support the Kansas tourism economy. 

Eligible Kansas families will download the Sunflower Summer App to claim tickets to participating venues. One adult ticket is eligible for free admission with eligible students. Tickets are redeemed at participating venues upon their arrival. Each user can only use tickets once per venue during the 2025 season. The 2025 Sunflower Summer season will run from July 12- Aug. 3.

“We are thrilled to be a venue for the 2025 Kansas Sunflower Summer program,” said museum director Michael Hathaway. “There’s something special about seeing kids explore, learn, and enjoy hands-on experiences right here. This program makes it easy for families to create meaningful memories together, and we’re proud to be one of the destinations that helps showcase the best of Kansas.”

Kansas Tourism, a division of the Kansas Department of Commerce, aims to inspire travel to and throughout Kansas to maximize the positive impacts that tourism has on our state and local communities.

“Kansas Tourism is excited to have Stafford Co. Museum as a part of the Sunflower Summer program,” said Kansas Tourism Director, Bridgette Jobe. “This program is an amazing benefit for the residents of Kansas, and we are looking forward to growing the program in the 2025 season. The Stafford County Museum is an important part of making this the best season yet for the program.”
