| 8/3/2024 | All Ages Show! Reserved Seats! About Aaron Watson: Aaron Watson’s career is perhaps summed up best by Forbes, who says he’s “one of country music’s biggest DIY success stories.” For over 20 years now, Aaron Watson has traveled the land as country’s ultimate underdog troubadour – a truly independent artist with the spirit of the American frontier in his veins, and a self-made empire to match. Working without corporate backers, he has nonetheless reached the Top 10 of Billboard’s Country Album chart five separate times – an impressive feat by any standard – and that includes his triumphant 2015 set, The Underdog, which landed at #1, becoming the first independent album in the history of country music to top the Billboard Country Albums chart. Matching sold-out shows across the country with homegrown hits, he’s followed suit at country radio, making history in 2017 with “Outta Style” and “Run Wild Horses.” “Watson has made a career out of giving his fans music that focuses on the positive. Music that serves as a salve to what ails them. Music filled with light and joy and an abundance of pride for the country he calls home,” said People.com of the 2021 American Soul album. Still pushing into the wind, Unwanted Man finds a creative renegade continuing to do what he does best, now working at the most “dangerous” level of his career. With a dozen additional records under his belt, Watson is exceeding major-label-sized metrics while maintaining his independence, further galvanizing his “Texas country's reigning indie underdog” (Rolling Stone) brand. “There may be no more genuine singer-songwriter at the moment than Watson,” says Texas Monthly, pointing to a self-made businessman, chart-topper, and road warrior whose authenticity has made him a country music staple. more info... |

| 8/29/2024 | Water in Kansas: Reflections on the Past and the Present However, we're facing some serious challenges. Over-extraction of groundwater, especially from the High Plains Aquifer, has led to significant declines in water levels. This puts our long-term water supply at risk, not just for farming, but for our communities and industries as well. Add to that the periodic droughts and unpredictable weather patterns, and it's clear we have a tough job managing our water resources. To speak on this complex topic, the Ottawa Area Chamber of Commerce Legislative Action Committee has invited Rex Buchanan to speak to our community. Rex is the Director Emeritus of the Kansas Geological Survey, based at the University of Kansas. A native of Rice County, Kansas, he was at the KGS from 1978 til 2016. He is the co-author or editor of several books, including Roadside Kansas: A Traveler’s Guide to Its Geology and Landmarks; Kansas Geology: An Introduction to Landscapes, Rocks, Minerals, and Fossils; and Petroglyphs of the Kansas Smoky Hills, all published by the University Press of Kansas. He does occasional commentaries for Kansas Public Radio and has degrees from Kansas Wesleyan University and the University of Wisconsin-Madison.Join us as we discuss “Water in Kansas: Reflections on the Past and the Present.” Tickets are $12 and include breakfast and discussion. We hope to see you there! more info... |
