Kansas launches Celebrating Our Statehood lottery for sesquicentennial
Kansas unveiled a new lottery game to kick off the 150th birthday celebration, offering a $1,500 top prize. The program aims to raise public awareness for the state’s sesquicentennial tied to Jan. 29 next year, with 600,000 tickets distributed and about 1,600 retailers selling at $1. The effort promotes the ks150.org site and features Mary Madden as commemorations chairwoman, noting the lottery as an active partner in the celebration. The initiative recalls Kansas statehood on Jan. 29, 1861, and the 1986 amendment allowing the state lottery. Lt. Gov. Findley and Lottery Director Van Petten framed the move as progress beyond the original constitutional ban on lotteries.
