I will give them names to contact and a set of questions the people of Kansas might like answered prior to their potential vote to add more classifications and how they plan to pay for it. At the 5A & 6A state tournament did you see how fast the management team of the New Intrust Bank Arena folks in Wichita changed their policy within 2 hours of massive pressure by the people using the facility. The all day pass was only good if you stayed in the building all day. Intrust management came up with the stamp the hand plan and more people bought hotdogs all day. Sometimes the policy makers need to get out of their offices and shovel some snow, dig a ditch, mow a little grass, so I am jumping the gun. Why did they start discussing this proposal back in the fall? If we do not ask questions - most likely will not get any answers.


I think you might have missed the point of my post, which was that the media really doesn't care about the general everyday workings of KSHSAA. No matter how many newspapers, radio stations, television networks you notify, you can be almost guaranteed it isn't going to make a newsworthy piece. I guess if you are really vigilant you may get a one paragraph mention at the back of the sports section of small town Kansas chronicle. If you are running for state office this probably isn't the plank to run your campaign on wink
