The Black Jack Battlefield Park
We are in the process of developing the land that was
purchased in 2003 which contains The Black Jack
Battlefield, The Pearson Farmstead Home as well as a
newly developed Nature Park that contains a nature
trail which winds through woods along the creek
and a Prairie Restoration Area.
The park will help to tell the story of the unique role
that the Battle played in our shared history.
It will also tell the story of Robert Hall Pearson and his
life and times at his 1890's Farmstead.
The Nature Park will preserve wildlife habitat and
provide a place to experience the beauty
and tranquility of a natural Kansas landscape in
an area undergoing rapid urbanization.
