Incumbents no-show school board forum
Two of three seats on USD 365
board are challenged in next
weeks general elections
BY DANE HICKS
THE ANDERSON COUNTY REVIEW
GARNETT A small crowd of USD 365 patrons
heard from two challengers for school board
positions in the upcoming board elections on
Nov. 2, but went home without hearing thoughts
and comments from any of the incumbents running to retain their positions none of whom
showed up for the Saturday event.
The tone of the forum was direct the candidates that attended and some of the crowd that
commented and asked questions were concerned
about what they see as unilateral moves by local
school boards and education in general from
mask mandates to transgender policy to critical
race theory and beyond that extend governments reach into classrooms and indirectly, to
their children.
Wesley Keller of Molon Labe Truth, the
local conservative political organization that
sponsored the event, said incumbents seeking
re-election Gina Witherspoon, Sonya Martin and
Michael Richards were all invited to attend. He
said two of the present board members said they
would not be in attendance and a third gave no
response. About thirty area residents attend the
event.
The lack of incumbent comments allowed
challengers Mark Powls of Garnett and Kevin
Gunner Calley of Richmond to answer ques-
tions and assert their beliefs on the board positions and relative governmental philosophies
for nearly two hours. The conversations ran the
gamut from discussion of school mask mandates
during the Covid-19 pandemic to school funding
to funding for extra curricular activities and
others.
Powls faces board member Sonya Martin in
the contest for Position 5. Calley is running for
Richards Position
4.
Witherspoon
is running unopposed.

May. USD 365 adopted a mask mandate for all
junior high and high school students when the
new term began in person in August 2020 and
continued until classes were completed in May
2021. Powls said sitting board members last year
ignored a petition he circulated which gained
122 signatures asking that the mask mandate be
rescinded.
They flat out ignored 122 people, Powls said.
Calley said there were no notations in any
of the meeting agendas or minutes around that

questioned whose decision it ultimately was.

assault by legislators on state contractors

Whisman proved no match for the
bureaucratic indifference of companies
managing the privatized system, despite
bringing her skills as a veteran law
enforcement officer to the battle. She said
the system proved difficult to understand
and even more challenging to navigate.
She offered statistical evidence of system failure that landed like punches of a

Colony Christian Church
– Hitting the target
Chase Riebel gave the
Communion Meditation, focusing on 2 Corinthians 5:18-20.
God has given us the task to
reconcile people to him as his
ambassadors. We can only
be made right with God thru
Christ. Sin has alienated people
from God, and as his messengers of peace, we must urge
others to return to him. Sin
breaks down our relationship
with God and others, it destroys
marriages and divides churches. Only Jesus has the remedy.
We need to take his message to
a broken, divided world, but as
you do, make sure that your
actions reflect God's love. It
would be a travesty to carry
God's message of love but to be
filled with hatred.
Pastor Chase Riebel gave the
sermon "Hitting the Target".
When Paul shared the Good
News with Felix and his wife,
he knew some things about
them that helped him direct his
words directly to them. And just
like Paul, the Holy Spirit will
give us what we need to share
our faith. We must choose how
to talk to people by what we
know/learn about them. Paul
spoke directly to Felix about
righteousness, self-control and
judgement, and what he told
him frightened Felix. And the
Holy Spirit never misses! Just
like with Felix, he convicts people of their sin. Our immoral
decisions will affect us at judgement. Eternal life or eternal
death is a certainty, it's our
decision on where we spend
our eternity. But don't procrastinate! Indecision is actually a
decision, it's a choice. The time
to get right with God is NOW!
Today is the day for your salvation. Don't miss the opportunity to turn your life over to
Jesus. His invitation is open
to all. (Ref: Acts 24:23-25; Luke
12; John 3:18 & 16:8-11; Romans
6:33; 2 Corinthians 6:2; Hebrews

he started work in Michigan,
where he would spend most
of his working life, with time
in New York and Alabama in

Bendix in 1977 and returned
home to Kansas where he spent
his days hunting, tinkering,
spending time with the people
he loved, and enjoying nature.

There is an old saying that
goes like this. Sticks and
stones may break my bones
but words will never hurt me.
All of us have been told this by
someone trying to comfort us.
Well I didnt believe it then and
I dont believe it now. Words
do hurt they can leave a lasting impression on us. With
social media, now more than
ever, words are a way for people to engage in lets say, verbal warfare. There are enough
weighty topics and passionate
people in the world that things
can get out of hand. I wonder
what Gods perspective is on all
of this verbal warfare?
I am afraid we have neglected the content of the Bible for
so long we no longer know who
God is or even consider his
feelings. In Genesis 1:1 the first
verse of the Bible, we are told.
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.
God tells us in Revelation 21:6
that he is the Alpha and the
Omega, the beginning and the
end. God is self-existent, he
does need to depend on anyone or anything to exist. God
is all powerful, all knowing,
ever present and unchangeable. All of these attributes
are what make God infinite or
limitless. And this should give
us pause for thought as we live
our life out before the face of
God, he sees our whole life as it
unfolds.
In Genesis 1:26 we read of
a conversation held among
the Godhead, the Father, Son
and Holy Spirit. Then God
said, Let us make man in our
image in our likeness. Have
you ever wondered what that
meant?
Genesis 1;1-25, sets
forth God as personal, rational
WEEKLY DEVOTIONAL
BY DAVID BILDERBACK
(having intelligence and a will)
creative ruling over the world
he has made and morally admirable (in that all he creates
is good). The Fall diminished
Gods image not only in Adam
and Eve but in all their descendants, the whole human race.
In creation man was created with the ability to sin and
the ability not to sin. After
the Fall man continued to be
able to sin, but lost the ability
or power not to sin. Man in a
sense took a step backwards
as a result of the Fall. Out of
the perfect environment of the
Garden into a state of moral
inability.
By the shear power of the
word of God a universe began
and man was created. The spoken word can be powerful. It
is like an arrow that has been
shot, you cannot call it back it
will fulfill its intended purpose.
Since we are made in Gods
image and likeness maybe we
should follow Gods advise set
forth in Col. 3:16. Let the word
of God dwell in you richly as
you teach and admonish one
another.

OPINION
Biden disaster forges new Republicans
REVIEW COMMENTARY
i
I remember the day I became a Republican,
and I have a feeling a lot of people today are
going to be thanking Joe Biden the same way I
thank Jimmy Carter.
It was April 25, 1980. I was 17 years old, a
junior in high school, and it was the first time I
ever skipped school.
The morning TV news shows were alive with
coverage of the botched rescue attempt of the
U.S. Embassy hostages in Iran, so I stayed home
that morning and watched. Some type of cluster
muck had gone down in the desert staging area
outside Tehran where the U.S. special forces
were trying to secretly set up the rescue and
evacuation of those 52 hostages. Carter had sat
on his hands since the previous November when
Iranian revolutionaries took over the embassy.
When it finally came, the mission was quickly
aborted and in the melee that followed one of our
choppers crashed into a C-130 transport plane.
Eight U.S. servicemen died. Our nation would
never live it down.
Carter took full responsibility. He had a conscience, at least, but his incompetence ran not
just from the inflation-racked economy, 22 percent interest rates and a disintegrated military,
but all the way up to what he himself termed an
encompassing malaise in America.
Malaise. Sound familiar?
By 1980 it was pretty clear Carters was not the
kind of America I wanted. I was raised in a family of Missouri Democrats who themselves were
chagrinned at his performance. My brother,
another eventual Carter-to-GOP convert, had a
Carter/Mondale sticker on his 67 Ford Fairlane
when he left for college the fall of 76 and cast his
first ever vote for a president for the Carter ticket that November. Carters ensuing debacles,
along with Ronald Reagan, Milton Friedman,
Art Laffer and Jack Kemp, was, for my brother
and many other voting-age Democrats, a Road to
Damascus-style conversion that lasted the rest
of their lives.
It took Carter nearly four years to make a
disaster of the country. Its taken Joe Biden only
a matter of months. If it wasnt so tragic for the
country, his inaugural speech pledge to restore
the soul of America would be better blazing
across a vintage cover of National Lampoon.
As if Americas soul was ever in need of
restoring. What more Americans would prefer
restored would be $1.87 per gallon gasoline;
theyd like to restore the nations southern border to stop the surge of Bidens illegal migrants
from a host of countries other than Mexico
and Central America and god-only-knows-what
theyre bringing with them; theyd like to have
DANE HICKS, Publisher
their paychecks restored like they were before
inflation started stealing their money. Theyd
like to see their constitutional liberty restored
and an end to vaccine mandates. Theyd like to
see high school and college sports restored so
women dont have to worry about competing
with men. Theyd like to have that $85 billion in
military hardware restored from Afghanistan,
the international reputation that was lost, and
the lives of those 13 U.S. service personnel.
Theyd like to restore the character of the
country.
Bidens imploding poll numbers are both
comfort and consternation the growing numbers of voters sobering up to the mistake they
made is accompanied by the horrible reality of
Bidens irreversible presidency. Regardless how
many people wise up, the countrys suffering
will go on for years until he and his ilk can be
removed.
Daunting desperation among Bidens
Democrats will be the story between now and
the 2022 midterms. A rudderless presidency is
a stationary target, and the Democrats on board
will be frantic for something anything to find
some gain in the remaining time they have, even
sacrificing the captain in the self-serving mutiny.
The simplistic lesson for the legions of newly-minted Republicans is in the never-to-be forgotten example that faulty thinking leads to
faulty policy, and faulty policy wrecks the country.
Joe Biden and the Leftists that make up his
court have made people who love America realize they were actually Republicans all along.

I was down at (blank) the other day and there
was two people in there smoking e-cigarettes

I was wondering why the Bulldog bus Monday
evening when it was traveling to Burlington

why there wasnt anything in the paper about it

Enough about the Covid vaccine. Are you going
to get your flu shot this year? Or are you a
scaredy cat? Boo. Its almost Halloween.
Employees standing up against forced vaccine
The U.S. judiciary system is doing a poor job
of stopping, blocking, and delaying COVID-19
vaccine coercion, but workers who have toiled
throughout the pandemic are using their voices to pressure companies into laying off of
forcing the jab.
Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer
declined on Tuesday to block Maine Democrat
Gov. Janet Mills vaccine mandate for health
care and nursing home employees. Earlier
this year, new Justice Amy Coney Barrett also
refused to intervene when students at Indiana
University asked the highest court in the land
to give them some relief from their educational institutions vaccine requirements for the
fall 2021 semester.
Even small court wins, such as last week
when a federal judge ruled that New York
must allow health care employers to consider
religious exemptions for workers and when
another judge in Texas ruled that American
Airlines couldnt put employees waiting for
exemptions on unpaid leave, are overshadowed by other judiciary decisions reinforcing
the medical coercion in areas as private as
family visitation rights.
The courts lack of vigor for reinforcing
personal freedom has resulted in the firing
of many people, but workers are determined
to fight back. Employees all across the nation
have protested, and some of their efforts are
COMMENTARY
JORDAN DAVIDSON, THE FEDERALIST
being rewarded.
While Delta Airlines continues to sell the
lie (some conservatives are buying it) that
they arent enforcing a mandate even though
they continue to charge unvaccinated workers $200 monthly, Southwest Airlines walked
backed its pledge to begin putting workers
who applied for vaccine exemptions on unpaid
leave in December after the company suffered
thousands of flight cancellations that damaged
the U.S. domestic travel market for days.
Southwest and the Southwest Pilots
Association categorically denied that the thousands of flight cancellations, delays, and general staffing problems were due to their new
vaccine policy, but sources told The Federalist
that part of the airlines operational meltdown
was due to pilots taking their paid sick leave
shortly before they were scheduled to be fired.
Its not a complete victory for Southwest
pilots and staff, but it does buy workers who
are hopefully waiting for approved medical
and religious exemptions the opportunity to
keep their jobs a little longer.
This type of resistance is growing and
spreading from coast to coast. The San
Francisco Department of Public Health forced
an In-N-Out location in Fishermans Wharf to
temporarily shut down after the restaurant
refused to check the vaccination status of customers.
We refuse to become the vaccination
police for any government, In-N-Out Chief
Legal & Business Officer Arnie Wensinger
told Newsweek. We fiercely disagree with
any government dictate that forces a private
company to discriminate against customers
who choose to patronize their business. This
is a clear government overreach.
Seattle police officers and firefighters also
caused a stir on Tuesday when they served
food to the homeless community and returned
their boots to City Hall after being fired for
refusing to get the COVID-19 jab.
They join the ranks of an unknown number of Chicago police officers who lost their

Chinese launch proves new threat in arms race
The Biden administration is hesitant to call
our competition with China a new Cold War,
even though Beijing has zero qualms about
making the parallels with our decades-long
struggle with the Soviet Union abundantly
clear.
We are once again discussing a Sputnik
moment, a nuclear arms race, and a missile gap — all throwbacks to the 1950s-1980s
— thanks to Chinas aggressive pursuit of military capabilities designed to deter and defeat
the United States.
Whatever Beijing may say and however we
may try to comfort ourselves with cushioning
delusions, the Chinese have repeatedly made
it plain that they intend to hold U.S. bases and
our homeland at risk.
The example of Sputnik, the primitive
Soviet satellite launched in 1957 that raised the
prospect of the U.S. losing the space race, was
on everyones lips with a bombshell Financial
Times report over the weekend.
According to the FT, the Chinese tested a
nuclear-capable hypersonic missile that circled the Earth once before descending on
its target, thus demonstrating an advanced
space capability that caught U.S. intelligence
by surprise.
Its not clear why anyone would be shocked.
It wasnt a secret that China and Russia were
developing these technologies, and indeed, it
wasnt a secret that China had leapt ahead of
us.
(The Chinese, bringing the same transparency theyve shown regarding the origins
NATIONAL COMMENTARY
RICH LOWRY, King Features Syndicate
of COVID-19, say it was just a routine space
launch.)
Hypersonic missiles bring a new element to
the ever-evolving competition between missile
offense and defense.
As former state department official
Christian Brose notes in his book The Kill
Chain, ballistic missiles travel fast but in a
predictable parabolic path. Cruise missiles, on
the other hand, travel relatively slowly but are
maneuverable and therefore unpredictable.
Hypersonic missiles are both unpredictable
and fast — six times faster than a Tomahawk
missile.
That means they are uniquely suited to
defeat our missile defenses. Not only cant we
counter them, we cant track them adequately
at the moment.
Over the summer, the head of North
American Aerospace Defense Command — yes,
thats NORAD of Cold War fame — said that the
new missiles would pose significant challenges to my NORAD capability to provide threat
warning and attack assessment.
The FT reports that the test missile missed
its target by roughly two dozen miles. Thats
a significant miss but wouldnt necessarily be
that much comfort if the missile were carrying a nuclear payload. And the targeting will
presumably be improved — thats one reason
to carry out the test in the first place.
An MIT professor told the FT that just
because China tested the capability doesnt
mean that it will deploy it. But the history of
expansionistic totalitarian states forbearing
from fielding advanced weapons after pouring
significant time and resources into developing
them is not, to say the least, very encouraging.
Itd be best if we abandon all wishful thinking
and admit the obvious.
Weve had a zombie arms control policy
focused on deals with Russia, while China has
been aggressively adding new weapons and
delivery systems.
Weve allowed China to rob our technology
and pour it into developing threats against us.
Weve been much too slow in developing the
next generation of weapons, including hypersonic missiles, and are modernizing our nuclear triad at a glacial pace while China is rapidly
adding new capabilities.
The response to the new circumstances

Hallelujah, the street in front of the funeral
home has been repaired. Thank you, thank you,
thank you.
Way to go Girls Golf! Our school has churned
out state bound golfers for decades. Its something we should really be proud of, its no small
feat. Dont know the number of years, but its a
lot. Go Bulldogs!
We all know how sad our world is today. How
a lot of our children are depressed, worried
about hearing stories of war, about wearing
masks they have never had to do. We need to
get our children to put a big smile on their face.
Be happy, excited. So lets light Garnett homes
up for Christmas this year no matter whether a
colored porch light, a Christmas sticker in the
window, anything to put a smile on their face
and get excited. For at least awhile again. Not
everyone can afford it but God bless all that
does. And we could start now and do this so
the children can see the lights and be happier
and not so depressed. Thank you all for making
a smile on our childrens faces. God Bless you.
The festive bicycle people and creatures that are
adorning our downtown square and depot are
great. A big thank you to their creators. Keep
up the good work you are appreciated.

Still seaching for historical sites to excavate
With morning temperatures
in the 30s and 40s, it certainly
reminds us that Fall has arrived
and old man Winter is lurking
right around the corner.
Our trip is over and so is my
latest archaeological project, the
old rock school site. It was a
great project and brought back so
many memories of my childhood
days, when I attended 8 years of
my education in a rural school.
For those of you who were
unable to attend my presentation
at our last Historical Meeting,
the school Im talking about was
the rock Gardner School District
47 1871-1944. It was one of six
rock school houses in Anderson
County. This structure was only
32X22 feet, but in early days 30-40
students attended there. In 1944

the attendance was 5 and they
were all boys and at the end of
the school year it was closed.
So right now I only have two
sites to work at. One in Anderson
County, which I dont have
access to until crop is harvested
and road leading to it is open.
The other site is at a 180 plus year

should reflect a Cold War-era
urgency. The Biden administration has proposed more
spending on hypersonic missiles, but the latest news should
mean even more of an emphasis on their rapid deployment,
so we can hold at risk Chinese
assets and maintain our deterrence.
We should, with an eye to
the growing Chinese missile
threat, deploy missile-defense
old home site in Linn County.
All Ive got to do is set a full day
aside and drive over to it.
Im hoping someone will soon
let me know that they have an old
homesite or something historical
and that they would approve of
me conducting hand excavations
on to see what the people who
lived there in the past may have
left behind.
Remember I do this as a
hobby. No hidden fees, etc. Plus
all artifacts found are given to
the landowner.
In the meantime, Im keeping
my metal detector humming!

As if we dont have enough
problems these days, now
apparently, we have to worry
about Zombie Invasion. In an
effort to draw awareness to
the publics need to be generally prepared for any emergency, the Centers for Disease
Control published information
on surviving a zombie attack.
20 years ago…
Vandals struck numerous
residences in Garnett burning three American flags and
spray painting buildings, cars,
and a local school. Garnett
Police Chief James Bond said
police were investigating about
22 reports of criminal damage
to property and arson located mostly on the north end of
town. He said most of the incidents involved reports of spray
paint, mostly green. A mailbox
was also burned. Tampering
with U.S. mail, including mailboxes, is a federal offense.
30 years ago….
With the continued low levels of moisture, harvest of the
fall grain crops in Anderson
County continues to roll
along with about 75 to 85 percent of the harvest completed. However, the dry weather
greatly impacted this years
crop yields. Although harvest
went well, the dry weather
reduced crop yields. In some
instances, no grain was gathered from soybeans planted on
wheat ground. Farmers have
reported corn yields running
from 18 to 85 bushes per acres
and beans anywhere from 6 to
30 bushes per acre.

The home of Mr. and Mrs.
Larry Decker, who live three
miles west and one mile north
of Colony was destroyed by
fire. No one was home at the
time of the fire, but the house
was a total loss by the time
Colony, LeRoy, and Welda
fire departments arrived on
the scene. Colony city clerk,
Arlene Roush, reported that
the firemen suspected that
faulty wiring was the cause of
the blaze but that no determination has yet been made.

The Review is informed that
between 300 and 400 telephones
have been ordered out, in writing, and it is predicted that not
less than 400 will be removed,
in case the telephone company
insists on a hike at this time,
as some are complaining that
they have had no opportunity
to sign up. With oats at twenty
to twenty-five cents and corn
at thirty-five cents and wheat
at about a half dollar, and with
several million men out of
employment and wages falling,
the people appear to think it a
poor time to hike the rates once
more.

Viking boys & girls teams stamp ticket to State
RICHMOND – The Central
Heights boys and girls took
advantage of running at home
for their regional assignment
as they both qualified for
State, continuing the recent
success for Viking cross country squads.
Dark clouds and silver
linings definitely sums up
the Regional meet and the
2021 season, Viking coach
Troy Prosser stated. This
group has fought through
an unimaginable amount of
adversity this entire year and
when it seemed like the difficulties just wouldnt let up
Conditions were far from
ideal, but the Vikings wouldnt
let that get in their way.
These kids brought some
grit to a wet, rainy morning.
I couldnt possibly have wanted more from any of them
because they laid it all on the
line, Prosser added.
Prosser was ecstatic when
the very first person to cross
the finish line in the first of
two races was Emma Cubit.
Cubit won gold with a

WICHITA – Crest sent just one
runner to Wichita to compete
in their regional cross country
race, but freshman Breakin
Jones made the most of his
opportunity finishing in 20th
place with a time of 19:59.
It was the 4th fastest time by
a freshman at the event.
Christian Darrah of Galva
High School finished well
ahead of the field with a time
of 17:13.
Darrahs time was 25 seconds better than second place
finisher Blake Yoder of Central
Christian High School.

Printing
and relying heavily on four
freshmen, a sophomore and
junior is normally a cause for
concern, Prosser said.
The future appears to be in
good shape for the Vikings.
If anyone has been following this group for the past few
years, however, they should
know exactly what these boys
can be capable of when the
gauntlet is placed in front of
them. As it has been the entire
season, Connor, Cody and
Owen paced the boys. said
Prosser.
The third place finish for
the boys sends them to State
for the 6th consecutive year.
The Vikings had 75 points,
just behind McLouth (52) and
Prairie Village (61).
Prosser wanted to add,
Absolutely phenomenal job
by everyone! There may only
be one week remaining, but I
am absolutely sure that everyone will be hearing and reading
about all of these runners many
more times in the future.

Ecclefield. Another exciting
donation from Richard and
Candy Hewes is a large replica
of the painting,
Wreck of the Seal Hunter.
Candy fell in love with this
painting many years ago
and went to great lengths to
achieve a painting of her own.
With the Walker collection
able to add a few items, this
will be an exhibit most people
will enjoy.
Make plans to spend a little
time in the West gallery in
November. You will enjoy..

trators have denied that CRT
is taught in USD 365 schools,
Garnett Elementary School
sixth grade teacher Connie
Scott told the candidates and
crowd there was plenty to be
concerned about.
A lot of the curriculum
were required to teach and
the materials were required to
teach are very left very liberal, Scott said. We study FDR,
but no Reagan. More people
are waking up to whats going
on.
Scott noted the instruction
of SEL Social Emotional
Learning to district teachers. Online education resources define SEL as the process
through which children and
adults understand and manage emotions, set and achieve
positive goals, feel and show
empathy for others, establish
and maintain positive relationships, and make responsible decisions. Scott said the
framework of SEL tends to
exclude conservative theory.
Our district adopted
Character Strong, Scott said
of the curriculum. There are
quotes about character points
you dont see a single conservative being quoted.
Powls, a former public
school music instructor, said
public education was heavily
influenced by NGOs NonGovernmental Organizations
which have no statutory
authority but provide often
left-leaning, pro-government
guidance and instruction for
newly-minted board members
and administrators, increasing
the likelihood that such policy
will be adopted and followed in
their tenures.
Powls said he believed public education in Kansas should
move back toward its more
limited basis in the Kansas
Constitution, and away from
extraneous moral and social
programming acquired over
recent decades.
Election polls open at 7 a.m.
and close at 7 p.m. on Tuesday,
Nov. 2. Early voting is now
underway at the county clerks
office in the county courthouse

Today is the last day to

Pandemic prompts more
travelers to purchase insurance
WICHITA – A new AAA Travel
survey finds that a majority of
Americans are still planning
to travel between now and the
end of next year, but many
more of them will be insuring
those trips specifically because
of the pandemic.
According to the survey, more than half (55%) of
American adults are planning
a vacation of at least one overnight stay before the end of
next year, but nearly one-third
(31%) of them say they are more
likely to purchase travel insurance for those trips because of
COVID-19.
Recent AAA Travel bookings have increased 11% over
2019 levels, and interest in travel insurance has increased in
turn. AAAs travel insurance
sales have increased more than
double digits year-over-year, as
members return to travel and
see the value of protecting that
investment.
The ability to cancel a trip
and get a refund is by far the
most frequently cited benefit
of travel insurance, with 69%
of travelers saying this is most
important to them when considering travel insurance for
an upcoming trip. AAA advises these travelers to look into
travel insurance policies that
include a cancel for any reason component, which could
offer more flexibility and protection in the event a traveler
needs to cancel their trip.
While travel insurance policies have historically not covered epidemics or pandemics,
in response to shifting consumer expectations, some providers
have started to introduce plans
that cover some losses due to
COVID-19 or other epidemic
diseases. AAA recommends
travelers consult the expertise of a knowledgeable travel
advisor to help plan their trips
and evaluate the various travel
insurance options available.
Choosing the right policy is important, and increasingly travelers want policies
that protect against common
covered reasons for trip cancellations and interruptions,
as well as other travel-related incidents including change
fees, delays or lost/damaged
luggage, to name a few.
Also, its important to note
that some international destinations may require visitors to
carry travel insurance, to help
cover any unexpected medical costs that may be incurred
while visiting. A knowledgeable travel advisor can help
travelers navigate these and
other evolving travel requirements. AAA encourages all
travelers to know before you
go be well-versed on all travel
restrictions that might be relevant to your destination and/
or any stops along the way.
The AAA Travel survey also
found that six in 10 Americans
(60%) see the benefit of working with a travel advisor.
Travelers top benefits of working with a travel advisor reflect
the important role they play
in todays more complex travel
environment, including:
To save time when researching or planning a vacation
(40%)
For help with complicated new travel restrictions/
requirements (34%)
To find the best deals (33%)

Humanities Kansas SHARP Recovery Grant
TOPEKA Humanities
Kansas recently awarded a
SHARP Recovery Grant in
the amount of $2,740.00 to the
Garnett Public Library.
The SHARP Recovery
Grants support Kansas cultural organizations that provide
humanities programming and
are facing financial hardship
due to the coronavirus. Grants
are for general operating support, staff retention, and needed digital and/or operational
transitions for cultural work
in the post-pandemic era.
Humanities Kansas awarded
121 SHARP grants statewide.
Humanities Kansas is
honored to be able to support
Kansas cultural organizations as we recover from the
impact of Covid, said Julie
Mulvihill, Humanities Kansas
Executive Director. This past
year has demonstrated that
Kansans lean into the humanities during challenging times.
Kansas cultural organizations
that do work in the humanities provide important social
connections and contribute to
the economic well-being and
strength of our communities.
Funds have been made
available
through
the
National Endowment for the
Humanities (NEH) to assist
cultural institutions affected
by the coronavirus as part of
the American Rescue Plan Act
of 2021 (ARP) approved by the
U.S. Congress and signed into
law by President Joseph R.
Biden.
About Humanities Kansas

ing the ins and outs of state
government, cant move the
needle on my case, what does
that mean for those who are
at an even greater disadvantage than I? We need advocates.
And, even if you cant help me,
please, fix it for them.
Before Whisman could sit
down in the statehouse room,
Republican senators and representatives lauded her courage for outlining in detail the
extent of her familys child-support misery.
What a mess, said Rep.
Tory Arnberger, R-Great Bend.
What a mess. I am so frustrated for you.
Were failing a whole lot of
other individuals who would
be frustrated at the first step,
said Sen. Carolyn McGinn,
the Sedgwick Republican and
chair of the joint committee.
She said DCF would likely
be called to testify about the
Whisman case before the committee submitted recommendations to the full Legislature.
It was obvious from lawmakers initial remarks they were
eager to dig into shortcomings
of a system fully privatized in
2013 during the administration
of Gov. Sam Brownback.
The state of Kansas previously fired Maximus for
bungling the telephone call
center used by people applying for KanCare, which is the
Medicaid program in Kansas.
Under the new contracts
issued by DCF, the unified call
center for child support payments managed by Maximus
was shut down. Maximus and
YoungWilliams now handle
their own customer calls related to child support.
In terms of territory,
Maximus has responsibility for child support cases in
Wyandotte, Sedgwick, Johnson
and
Shawnee
counties.
YoungWilliams has jurisdiction in the 101 other counties.
Under the old contracts, DCF
had four companies handling
work on cases of child support.
How is it we would recontract with groups that have
served us so poorly? said
Sen. Molly Baumgardner,
R-Louisburg.
How
will
Maximus be addressing what
really has been a very failed
process? Give us some feedback.
Rachel Zietlow, lead vice
president for U.S. services at
Maximus of Reston, Virginia,
said the company was dedicated to providing a positive customer experience for Kansans
involved in child support system. She said Whismans predicament was unfortunate.
I know that Maximus
is committed to putting the
customer experience first,
Zietlow said. It is focused on
helping noncustodial parents
overcome barriers to supporting their children.
Kelly Lamson, representing
YoungWilliams, said the companys new contract with the
state gave it authority of child
support cases in 101 counties.
The company plans to work
with Maximus to resolve
Katie Whismans plea for collection of child support owed
her. (Screen capture/Kansas
Reflector)
Have you reached out to this
individual? Baumgardner
asked.
Zietlow said she hadnt, but
the company had her testimony and its something we will
prioritize.
Kelly Lamson, who oversees project operations for
YoungWilliams in Kansas,
said the company invested
in its workers so they would
have skills to deliver highly
professional customer service.
YoungWilliams has worked
in the child support field for
Kansas since 2013.
Rep. Shannon Francis,
R-Liberal, said YoungWilliams
should explore what elements of its delivery system
led to problems outlined by
Whisman.
Are they endemic to your
company? he said.
Lamson said testimony from
Whisman was heartbreaking.
She said there were significant
legal hurdles to collecting child
support from a self-employed
parent living in a different
state who refused to pay. Those
factors make it hard for Kansas
to garnishment wages, she
said.
I just cant comment specifically on any case due to confidentiality, Lamson said. Im
really going to refrain from
commenting on any specific
case.
In 2020, DCF received a
report evaluating the states
child support system. The
assessment concluded Kansas
needed to modern its processes
and upgrade of the computer
network used to handle cases.
Midwest Evaluation and
Research, an Emporia consulting firm, concluded it would
require a dedicated group of
politicians, administrators and
advocates to break through
resistance to reform.
A lack of support at the
highest levels of leadership in
Kansas could be one reason
why Kansas lags behind other
states in terms of carrying
out changes that could build a
high-performing program that
ranks in the top tier nationally, the report said. tors

engaged in a blaming exercises
whenever another gear slipped
in the system. She documented
25 instances in which she visited a child support office, made
phone calls or sent emails without progress. She repeatedly
submitted the documents that
were mishandled by contractors or DCF.
Rachel Zietlow, a vice president at Maximus, center, said
the case of Katie Whisman
inherited by Maximus on
Oct. 1 was unfortunate and
the company would prioritize
Whismans plea for assistance
collecting $53,000 in unpaid
child support. (Screen capture/
Kansas Reflector)
I am here today because I
am losing hope. I do not know
where else to turn, she told the
Legislatures special committee on child support Tuesday.
While I might be the only one
in the room today sharing my
experience with a failed system, I can assure you I am not
the only one. They might be
your friends, your neighbors,
your fellow state employees.
One thing is for certain: They
are your constituents.
Whisman, who bought her
18-year-old daughter to committee meeting at the Capitol,
asked House and Senate members to view child support as
essential income for thousands
of Kansas families. When not
paid, she said, it spreads financial strain and emotional stress
through a custodial parents
household.
Her
presentation
followed remarks by the Kansas
Department for Children and
Families and prefaced testimony by the two payment collection companies DCF awarded
three-year contracts to Oct. 1
Maximus and YoungWilliams.
YoungWilliams previously
controlled the Topeka area, but
DCFs new contract moved oversight of Topeka to Maximus.
I am not only here today to
share my story, but to expose
theirs, too, Whisman said. If
I, with over 20 years experience in dealing with the Kansas
legal system and understand-

applicants for the post. Weiner
earned $95,000 and left for a
job in Monett, Mo., which paid
$125,000.
The particular challenges
and demands for small town
city managers was chronicled in a 2003 book by Auburn
University professors and
city
management,Local
Government Management:
Current Issues and Best
Practices, which noted political factors in their cities and
among the elected officials
they work for, plus the com-
mon desire for career advancement to larger cities, meant
city managers typically had a
pretty short tenure with the
exception of smaller towns.
There are, however, a relatively small number of city
managers who enjoy long tenure in single cities, the book
says. A study survey for the
book revealed long-serving city
managers are more likely to be
found in smaller cities that are
homogeneous and politically
stable. The majority of these
city managers are white males
with above-average education-
al levels, strong support from
elected officials, and personal
commitments to the cities they
serve.
The LEAPS applicant website last week included an ad
for one other city manager post
in Kansas, the city of Garden
Plain with a population of 807,
offering a salary of $75,000.
Ogallala, Neb., pop. 4,700 and
also included on the site, was
