For people who enjoy a relaxing, enjoyable, getaway, Girard offers a variety of interesting destinations and businesses to choose from. The Town Square experience is more than a downtown group of streets, which surround the Crawford County Courthouse. The Town Square describes the friendly, personable, attention people receive when they visit any of our local restaurants, stores, automobile dealers, and other points-of-interest throughout the town. Girard is located five miles west of Highway 69 on Highway 47, approximately 45 miles north of the Oklahoma border or 130 miles south of Kansas City. For those traveling historical scenic routes, Highway 7, one of our state's first highways, travels directly through Girard.
