Looking for ideas
The Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve in Chase County is looking for suggestions on how to improve the experience for visitors to the preserve. The staff is planning three public meetings on May 13 — 9:30 a.m. at the Emporia Public Library, 12:30 p.m. at the preserve north of Strong City on Kansas Highway 177 and 5 p.m. in the basement of the Morris County Courthouse in Council Grove. Those who do not wish to attend a meeting may fill out a short survey online at survey.bnim.com/checkbox/tallgrass.aspx.
The preserve is scheduled to break ground in March 2010 on a new visitors center.

The final forum in the 2009 Eggs & Issues series will be Saturday at the Mary Herbert Education Center, 1700 W. Seventh Ave.
