November 20, 2007 To the Lecompton Historical Society Membership: This has been another fantastic year for the Lecompton Historical Society and Lecompton community. At this writing we have had visitors from 48 states, only Rhode Island and Vermont are missing. There have also been visitors from 24 foreign countries. Lecomptonkansas.com our fantastic web site has had 78,424 visits. Charlene Winter has conducted 48 special tours of the museum. The Lecompton Reenactors troupe, has performed 41 "Bleeding Kansas" plays outside of the city.
Many great things have taken place this year. The nomination of Constitution Hall as a finalist for the 8 Wonders of Kansas is certainly a highlight. The promotion material for Lecompton would include a National Landmark, Kansas Historic Site, National Register Site and one of the 8 Wonders of Kansas. We would be the only town in Kansas to have this many historic designations. Lecompton has been included in the greater Kansas City Attractions Association brochure. This publica- tion includes 30 important sites in Kansas City such as the Nelson Art Museum, WWI Museum, Kansas City Zoo, the Royals, the Chiefs, Crown Center and the Plaza. This is great recognition of the importance of the history of Lecompton to be included with the above mentioned sites. We also are included in the History Map published by the Heritage League of Greater Kansas City. We were ask to arrange a display booth to promote Lecompton at Royals Stadium for a Royals game by the Greater Kansas City Attractions Association. The film "Bad Blood, The Border War that Triggered the Civil War" which was produced by KCPT TV made its debut and received raving reviews. Lecompton plays an important part in this film which they hope to show nationally.
"Freedom's Frontier National Heritage Area which passed Congress and was signed into law by President Bush will help promote Lecompton. National Geographic is going to complete the management plan for the The return of the Lecompton Constitution 150 years after its writing along with Colonel Titus sword for the Bleeding Kansas Lecture Series and Territorial Day was a major attraction. We participated in the Na- tional Travel Association Convention attended by nearly 2000 travel operators from a across the nation at the Legends in Kansas City. The 2007 Bald Eagle Rendezvous was very successful this year.
None of this would be possible without the loyalty and dedication of you our members. We hope you will renew your membership and encourage others to join as we try to make Lecompton a household name across the nation. As E. H. Butler & Co of Philadelphia stated in 1884 that no name of no city in the world was ever such a party cry; and that from 1855 to 1859 "Lecompton" was spoken in as many languages as the name of Paris, London, and Berlin. Lecompton was a "National Obsession" and with your help it can be an major tourist attraction and bring economic development to this city.
150 years ago events started moving to Washington, D.C., but this sesquicentennial year for us will be momentous. Please help us enjoy it fully.
