Approximately 160 people, including 88 expectant mothers attended the third Luke’s Community Baby Shower at the Shenk Gym at Junction City High School on Saturday.
The event was sponsored by Delivering Change: Healthy Moms, Healthy Babies, in partnership with the Kansas Infant Death and SIDS Network.
The Director of Marketing for the Geary County Perinatal Coalition, Ashley King said those in attendance were taught the ABC’s of Safe Sleep alone on their back and in a crib. That was the focus of the shower, to promote safe sleep.
Numerous community resources were on display to those in attendance through a variety of booths. This was the first baby shower held at the Shenk Gym. The next one in November will be at the same location.
