KCK Street Fest - Rewind!

Last Friday's Street Fest was a huge success! I got out and took a few pictures just before my camera battery died. I didn't get any pics of the bands and there was a lot of other stuff I missed, too. If you were there and have pics you'd like posted, send them along and I'd be happy to share!

Downtown KCK Ghost Tours

One of Downtown KCK's many strengths is the fascinating history. Some believe that the spirits from the past continue to linger. Ghost Tours of Kansas is a privately owned business operating in 9 cities in Kansas. The Downtown KCK Ghost Tours started in August of 2008 and have consistently sold out bus tours of 40 patrons per tour.

Focusing on commercial and public areas, the tours are designed to generate an ongoing interest in the dynamic history that many places have to offer. The Downtown KCK Ghost Tour highlights over 60 haunted locations, visiting up to 25 per tour. The bus tours stop and visit 2 or 3 locations with special stories. The group has also been involved with conducting public investigations. St. Mary's Church on 5th & Ann has been identified as the third most haunted place in Kansas!

The cost of a tour is $17.50. Dinner With A Ghost allows patrons to enjoy the offerings of some haunted restaurants for a ticket price of $29.50.

Ghost Tours of Kansas offers a great opportunity to visit the most haunted places in Kansas City, Kansas. Check out what the Wichita Eagle called a mix of "history, mystery and stand up comedy!" Private tours are also available

Thank you Cathy Breidenthal!

Cathy Breidenthal has retired after 22 years as executive director of the local YWCA. As the current chair of Downtown Shareholders, Cathy has contributed enormously to the success of Downtown revitalization efforts, notably the passage of the Self Supported Municipal Improvement District (SSMID) for Downtown Kansas City, Kansas.

Under her leadership at the YWCA, a capital campaign was completed resulting in a fitness center, a coffee café, a community meeting area and public art space. Breidenthal said during her tenure at the YWCA, she has been an advocate and model for positive change in the community by continuing to bring people together and seeking a common ground to address critical issues.The YWCA continues to serve diverse women and girls through programs addressing health and career development. Breidenthal said she has served organizations as both a policy maker and an administrator and believes it is most important to distinguish the differences in these roles.

Cathy also served as chair of the Kaw Valley Arts Board and the first Convention and Tourism Bureau of Wyandotte County and has filed for a position on the Kansas City, Kansas, Community College Board of Trustees. Downtown Shareholders is incredibly grateful to Cathy for her ongoing dedication and commitment to the improvement of Downtown Kansas City, Kansas.
