No such thing as a free lunch at Ottawa Goppert Center

A per-visit fee for ages 6-11 and 12-59 is introduced with free entry for ages 5 and younger, while 30 and 60 visit passes are offered. The board notes maintenance costs and calls for public input on the policy.

December push for corporate and PAC campaign contributions in Kansas
Kansas lawmakers face a fundraising deadline as PAC and corporate money are barred from Jan 1 during the legislative session. Analysts note 22 House members had more cash on hand than spent in 2012, shaping early campaigns. Democratic challenger Paul Davis and running mate Jill Docking aim for about $1 million before the cutoff to balance the race against Gov. Sam Brownback. Martin Hawver notes the upcoming Jan 10 filing could reveal lawmakers unlikely to return.
