# Event Details

- **Event Name**: “From Grit to Glory: The Page 618 and America’s Promise Renewed” (April 1-June 27)
- **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 01 Apr, 2026 at 10:00 am
- **Event Description**: Our Page 618 exhibit continues for its final quarter as we prepare for the historic relocation of this magnificent machine. Held over to coincide with the move, this will be the last quarterly exhibit centered on the Page before it takes its permanent place at Dragline Park.

Guests can continue participating in our popular Giants of American Grit Scavenger Hunt, inviting visitors and students to discover the hardworking men and powerful machines featured in both the exhibit and our permanent collection.

Once relocation is complete, the Page 618 Walking Dragline will stand as the largest preserved walking dragline on public display in the United States — prominently located along the historic Jefferson Highway in Franklin, Kansas.

We remain deeply grateful to the John Page family for sharing artifacts, photographs, and personal stories that bring this remarkable legacy to life, and to the Wilkinson family for entrusting us with this extraordinary piece of mining history.

The Page 618 Dragline Project is funded in part by Kansas Tourism, the Patterson Family Foundation, the John U. Parolo Education Trust, the Coleman Family Foundation, and the Mitchelson Family Foundation. The project is managed by Tilton &amp; Sons, Inc.

Be sure to stop by and see this exhibit for its final quarterly exhibit.  Monthly programs will be announced soon.
