The course, designed by notable architect Perry Dye, is one of the finest municipal courses in the region. The course was nominated for Golf Digest’s “Top 10 Municipal Courses.” The Course takes you through scenic wetlands areas, rolling hills, undulating greens and tight corridors through a new upscale residential development. Lunch will be provided at the Auburn Hills Clubhouse, hosted by Wichita Parks and Recreation Department. http://www.golfwichita.com/courses/AuburnHills/ Flint Hills Overland Wagon Trip: 5:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.– This experience is open to all guests, exhibitors and delegates. Journey back into history and experience the feel of the frontier firsthand on a wagon trip into the scenic Flint Hills. Unbroken by the plow, because of the hard flint rocks so close to the surface, these hills remain nearly unchanged from the time of the frontier. The lush bluestem grasses that nurtured the great herds of bison are now the domain of domestic cattle. Enjoy a Kansas sunrise with an authentic chuckwagon breakfast by wagon train. The group will also tour the ranch and prairie by wagon train and be entertained by a real cowboy band and cowboy poet. After a light lunch, the group will return to Wichita. www.wagontrainkansas.com Friday, September 9 Main Convention Tour 8:00 AM – 9:30 PM Pre-registration is required This tour will take us to the newest LWCF project in Wichita—a skate park situated under a highway overpass that would otherwise be wasted space! Deep bowls you’d need a ladder to access without wheels and challenging to local skateboarders. From there, we’ll visit the Great Plains Nature Center (http://www.gpnc.org/), a cooperative venture between the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the City of Wichita. The Center houses the Koch Habitat Hall, serves as a head for trails running through Wichita’s Chisholm Creek Park (also a site for LWCF and Recreational Trail grants), and is the regional office of the KDWP. Then we’re off for the Sedgwick County Zoo, Kansas’ #1 outdoor family attraction and LWCF site (http://www.scz.org/). After a special lunch, we will have a tour of the Downing Gorilla Forest, where we’ll watch the gorillas outdoors and maybe catch a glimpse of the rare okapi. Then we’ll be free to tour other exhibits until it’s time to head for our next stop. Following our time at the Zoo, we’ll head for Cheney State Park, LWCF site and a world class sailing lake, consistently one of our top-rated parks. There we will have options for several activities, such as sailing, Laser Shot booth, archery, fishing and hiking. We’ll be served a dinner of grilled buffalo steaks and Kansas home-grown produce at the Ninnescah Sailing Association’s log clubhouse, the Afterdeck. http://www.ninnescah.org/ Our after-dinner treat is a concert under the sky by Kansas’ own “Nashville Recording Artist” Heather Shelley http://www.heathershelley.com), voted “2005

Downtown is home to dynamic companies who choose to be in the middle of the action. During my time with Westar Energy over the past 12 years I have witnessed downtown’s evolution firsthand and it has been an awesome experience! Much of that transformation began in 2010 with the adoption of Project Downtown: The Master Plan for Wichita.

  • To Whom It May Concern, I Am Writing to You to Express My Concern That
    To whom it may concern, I am writing to you to express my concern that Century II and the old downtown library have been removed from the plan to redesign the look of the Arkansas River in downtown Wichita and will apparently be replaced with smaller buildings and a large green space designed to connect other businesses to the river. I believe that if this plan is carried out and Century II were destroyed, that it would cost the city and her residents a significant economic structure that will not be easily replaced. I feel that the so called need to grow and revitalize often comes with the destruction of our irreplaceable history. Both Century II and the library are historic buildings that many consider permanent structures in the downtown aera. They are both irreplaceable history that will be gone forever! Many Wichitans have grown up attending events at Century II, everything from concerts, plays, comedy specials and graduations. Century II is iconic with the Wichita skyline. When I hear that a “international consulting group,” with no ties to Wichita, has eliminated Century II from their “Riverfront Legacy Master Plan,” then, I must say, they do not have the right feel for Wichita in mind while trying to carry out this job. Many have, just as fond memories of the library, as well, as do I. I understand that there are several plans on the table and while I believe that one calls for the destruction of Century II, my hope is that another will lean toward renovating the building.

    KEY: WICHITA REGISTER OF WRHP - HISTORIC PLACES REGISTER OF HISTORIC RHKP - KANSAS PLACES NATIONAL REGISTER OF NRHP - HISTORIC PLACES For more information contact: Historic Preservation Office Metropolitan Area Planning Department 10th Floor-City Hall 455 N. Main Wichita, Kansas 67202 (316) 268-4421 www.wichita.gov ind out more about Wichita’s history on the Discover Historic Wichita! guided F trolley tour. 316-352-4809 INTRODUCTION Discover Historic Wichita was first published in 1997. A second edition was printed in 2002 with a few minor changes. Since that printing, Wichita property owners have expressed a growing interest in listing their properties in the Register of Historic Kansas Places (RHKP) and the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) and many have been added. Also, a commercial area, the Warehouse and Jobbers District, was listed in 2003 and Wichita’s four historic districts were listed in the RHKP and NRHP in 2004. In this latest edition additional research was conduct- ed to ensure accuracy. The brochure is organized alphabetically by the name of the structure. The entries are also numbered to correspond with locations on the map found at the front of the brochure. An online publication of the Discover Historic Wichita brochure is updated as properties and/or his- toric districts are added to Wichita’s inventory of list- ed properties. The current version is on the Historic Preservation Office website at http://www.wichita. gov/Residents/History/. Biographical notes of relevant architects have been added to this brochure. Wichita’s periods of economic boom and bust brought these professionals to town to take advantage of building surges.

  • WALA Fall Newsletter Message from the President Volume 25, No
    October 2016 WALA Fall Newsletter Message from the President Volume 25, No. 3 Greetings Wichita Area Library Association members and friends. My name is Tom Taylor. I am the Director of the Andover Public Library. I have been in Andover for almost 3 years, but I have been a WALA member since 2008 when I moved to Wichita. I enjoy listening to audiobooks, reading when I can, and watching Indy Car racing and other sports. It is my pleasure to serve you as the President of WALA. WALA is the best value of any professional organization I have belonged to. For only $15 you get to connect with a wide variety of librarians across the metro area. Our continuing education and advocacy offerings have proven to be very valuable to me and the libraries I have represented. And we have fun, lots of fun. It is, however, far from fun and games for Kansas libraries. Public Libraries and our regional library systems faced a significant legislative Tom Taylor, threat this past spring. Legislation appeared that would strip the WALA President, autonomy of local library boards and the taxing authority of the Andover regional library systems. Fortunately librarians and library supporters Public Library rallied to the cause and libraries were removed from that legislation. But our advocacy efforts must not end. That legislation could reappear. Our schools and universities are dealing with continued funding shortages that affect their libraries. We need to advocate on their behalf. We learned this past spring that our voices can be heard. So, please renew your membership if you have not already and join us at our annual Legislative Luncheon on November 21st at YaYa’s EuroBistro.
