Southwest Kansas “Night Out in Topeka”
Your Dodge City Area Chamber of
Commerce, in partnership with other
chamber offices from Garden City,
Grant County, Hugoton, Liberal and
Scott City, recently hosted a special
Legislative Reception in Topeka.
Nearly 300 people attended the
reception which included Members
of the Kansas House and Senate,
members of the Governor’s Cabinet,
and business and community leaders
from Southwest Kansas. While the
reception did not have a formal agenda,
the state officials did learn about
issues important to our respective
communities and the region.
Dodge City chamber members who
assisted with the sponsorship of the reception included: AT&T, Black Hills
Energy, Western State Bank, Cox Communications, Victory Electric, and
National Beef. Thanks to all of our sponsors and community and chamber
leaders who took part in the reception.
