LIBERAL FIRST
Liberal's leading source for news and views
A Kansas third party, United Kansas, was on hand in Liberal Saturday morning to share information and its platform, and people were able to get a glimpse of those in the meeting’s opening statements.
Country musician Jake Gill has been working on making his mark in the music world the past few years, and soon, he will be making his way to the area.
Gill will be bringing his band and music to the area with an upcoming concert, which will be at 8 p.m. Saturday, May 10 at Bullwackerz Saloon at 109 E. 6th Street in Hugoton. The show is free and sponsored by Bullwackerz Saloon, but reservations are encouraged since 20 free VIP meet and greets are being offered, which will entitle lucky guests to a pre-show acoustic set on the bus with the band. Attendees will also have the opportunity to adopt a facility-bound veteran at the event and even communicate with their adoptee, and each person who adopts a veteran will receive a gift from the band after the event.
The Baccalaureate Service for the 2025 Liberal High School Senior Class will be at 7 p.m. Wednesday at Liberal High School inside the James Maskus Auditorium. Everyone is welcome to this special service sponsored by the Liberal Ministerial Alliance.
Renee Beesley came to work at Hugoton High School a decade ago, and at that time, the school had no show choir.
Starting such a choir was her primary goal before she became an educator.
“When I decided to teach, I said, ‘I will do that if you let me start a show choir,’” she said. “They allowed me to do that, and the first year, we just met on Sundays. It was so late in the year when I came on board. The schedule was already made.”
Seward County Community College (SCCC) and Garden City Community College (GCCC) and have signed a new Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) to expand educational opportunities for students in Liberal and the surrounding areas. This agreement establishes a partnership for a Registered Medical Assistant (RMA) program taught on the SCCC campus by instructors from both colleges.
