The Laura Ingalls Wilder Park & Museum thanks everyone who helped make Laura Days 2022 a memorable celebration in Burr Oak.

We were honored to welcome Wendi Lou Lee, who portrayed Baby Grace for four years on the television series Little House on the Prairie, as our guest speaker. Wendi delighted visitors by sharing stories from her time on the show, answering questions, signing autographs, and posing for photos throughout the day.

Entertainment during the weekend included Wendi Lee and Brad Boice, adding music and energy to the festivities. Laura Days also featured a parade, pie auction, 5K run, and activities throughout the park and museum grounds.

Thank you to the many volunteers, parade participants, pie bakers and bidders, sponsors, and the many visitors who supported the museum and stopped by the gift shop. Your time, talent, and enthusiasm helped make Laura Days 2022 a fun and successful weekend for all.
