Wichita Life Community

As much as I love writing these emails and keeping you up to date on Wichita happenings (I do truly love it), I love meeting you, our readers, even more.
This is much more than me just writing these emails into the abyss. I like to think of Wichita Life as a community of people who love our city. If you email me, I will do my best to respond, even if it takes a few days.
That being said, I also want YOU all to be able to interact with each other, ask questions, share recommendations, etc.
