Small town treasures await visitors in this friendly community. In the downtown district you'll discover a 1,000-drawered hardware store with an old-fashioned tin ceiling. The Wakarusa Historical Museum (open by chance or appointment) offers interesting exhibits and collections for history buffs. Mouthwatering treats tempt you to stop in this family-friendly town, from the hand-dipped ice cream cones at Cook's Pizza to the grilled favorites at the baseball themed Shortstop Inn. The Wakarusa Dime Store offers an interesting variety of nostalgic candy, many you'll remember from childhood. Don't forget to pick up a bag of the famous jumbo jelly beans for your trip home!
