Let's get to it!

WICHITA LIFE PARTY

We are about a month out from our 7 Year Anniversary Party! It will be Thursday, April 25th at the Commerce Club.

We started this as an annual tradition and it has been a blast, you can check out our 5 year and 6 year highlights! A portion of ticket proceeds will go towards nonprofit Simply Hygiene.

You'll find more details on the Eventbrite page itself. Can't wait to celebrate with you!

TOGETHER WITH ELLIS IN WANDERLAND

Mind-Blowing Vacations for Families

With Ellis in Wanderland, I fuel my love of travel and encourage others to do the same by taking the stress of vacation planning off their plates.

I love working with moms to create a vacation for the baby books and core memories that the kids will never forget (and neither will Mom and Dad).

Too often, we put off traveling until "the kids are old enough to remember" or wait until they can carry their own bags.

Then, we don't go because kids over two don't fly for free, and the prices get higher as the kids get bigger. I love to put together an itinerary that blows the kids' minds and has them giddy with excitement - without blowing your grocery budget for the year.

BUSINESS

Opening

Scholfield Honda

Scholfield is bringing a car you’ve probably never seen (at least I haven’t) to the states:

The Grenadier by Ineos

It looks pretty awesome…

STARTUP

Martini Shot

I love board games. I love local startups. I love browsing Kickstarter.

Martini Shot wraps all 3 into one with their new movie trivia game.

Support local.

Fin-Tastic Party House

Does your kid want to have a sleepover, but you don’t want the mess?

Fin-Tastic Party House has the solution.

CIVIL

Historic Horse Racing

Golden Circle will open in September 2025.

It is a “historic horse racing” facility where you can bet on old horse races. Good luck trying to game the system though as all the identifying details have been removed.

Pickleplex

Do you remember the potential $6 million pickleball complex slated for south Wichita?

That may be smaller than originally planned, or axed all together to save money for a homeless shelter after Senate bill cut funding in half for infrastructure.

Digging in Riverside

If you’ve noticed a bunch of digging in Riverside lately, you’re not alone.

Kansas Gas Services are upgrading many of their lines and hope to be finished by early April.

LOCAL

The Circus is Coming

Hugh Jackman would be proud. There are a few different acts coming through town:

Mean Girls

Get in losers, we’re going to Century II.

Mean Girls is coming to town for Broadway Wichita 4/19 - 4/21.

Wichita Asian Night Market

Get ready for a night you won’t forget.

Coming May 18th at Riverfront Stadium is the Wichita Asian Night Market where you will experience the vibrant flavors, sights, and sounds of Asia right here in Wichita.

ICT EXTRA

Miss Teen Kansas 2024

Congrats to Andover Middle School student Averie Mountain on winning Miss Kansas’ Teen 2024!

The Voice

AJ Harvey, a Southeast High grad, may not have won The Voice, but he did turn some heads and some chairs. Come check out his performance at The Brickyard on Friday 4/26.

How much to live comfortably in Wichita?

Spoiler: more than the $50k.

Easter Egg Hunts

It wouldn't be Easter weekend without some Easter Egg Hunts would it?
