Take a road trip to Kimmswick with the ladies at Salt Creek Attic and Calm Creek Cafe'

[September 01, 2017]   The wheels on the bus go round and round, round and round, round and round as the people leave the town. The ladies at Salt Creek Attic and Calm Creek Café in Mount Pulaski are sponsoring a Christmas bus trip to the historic village of Kimmswick, Missouri on Saturday, December 2. The bus will leave from the Mount Pulaski Courthouse square promptly at 7:30 a.m. and return at 7:00 p.m.

The historic village of Kimmswick and surrounding area on the Mississippi has a population of about 200 people. During many festivals, crowds of thousands descend on the community for such events as Witches' Night Out, Strawberry Festival, Apple Butter Festival and Christmas Festival and Cookie Walk.

During the Christmas Festival the town will be beautifully decorated. There are 33 little homes that have shops and seven restaurants. Meals are not included in the price of the ticket but snacks will be provided.

There will be no meal stop on the way to Kimmswick or on the return trip home. The bus is expected to return to Mount Pulaski at 7:00 p.m., plenty of time to enjoy a nice dinner at one of the local restaurants.

While in Kimmswick, guests may choose to take the "Cookie Walk." Each business will offer a small bag of homemade cookies that may be collected when entering the shop, along with a cookbook, featuring recipes of all the cookies being distributed.

The cookie walk will be at an additional cost, but tickets may be reserved when you reserve your bus tickets.
