Finney County Keeps 3i Show Deal For Garden City
Finney County commissioners voted 4-1 to extend a no-cost fairground access and 90 percent net proceeds share to the Garden City Area Chamber for the 3i Show, a decision praised for local economic impact and community benefit despite rising costs. The show, alternating with Great Bend, reportedly brings over $1 million in annual economic activity and draws visitors to local motels, stores, and eateries. Was it right to extend the arrangement to keep the event in town? SWKTalk readers weigh in.
