A re-dedication ceremony occurred at the Memorial to Fallen Educators during National Teachers Hall of Fame Induction week in Emporia, Kansas. Seven names will be added to the memorial this year including three educators from Parkland, Florida. The Memorial to Fallen Educators became the first national memorial in Kansas when the National Memorial to Fallen Educators Act was signed into law April 30. The National Teachers Hall of Fame partnered with Emporia State University to create a permanent tribute to educators who lost their lives while on duty in their PreK-12 schools. A dedication ceremony was held June 12, 2014. The memorial includes the names of 119 educators including teachers, administrators and education support professionals who were killed "in the line of duty," dating back to 1764.

Lawrence was founded in the 1850's as the state's center of resistance to the expansion of slavery. And it paid the price. Targeted, pillaged and burned to the ground during the Civil War, the community rebuilt with a commitment to education, civility, and the future. Historical agencies throughout Douglas County will present programs that explore Quantrill's Raid and highlight the area's territorial and Civil War History during the Civil War on the Western Frontier, August 12-19.  On September 21-22, a national gathering called Keeping Legends Alive at Haskell Indian Nations University will honor the legacy of those who served our country and recreate the largest gathering of tribal people in Lawrence, Kansas in 1926 when the first tribal World War I Memorial – the Haskell Stadium and Arch – was dedicated.

On July 25, National Wine and Cheese Day won't go unnoticed at Harry's on Poyntz Avenue, where the classic restaurant celebrates a classical drink and food pairing. Another tradition, Kaw Valley Rodeo bucks into Manhattan at CiCo Park (July 26-28) during the Riley County Fair. Observe gentler animals during Aug. 18 Brew at the Zoo at the state's top zoological location, Sunset Zoo.
