The two previous games we attended were live action in person, and Sporting won both times. This time was a little different, but still enjoyable. As an affiliate of the MLS team, we were in town for an All-Star weekend and allowed to watch the team's season opener (which was actually in NY) in the stadium on the big screen. The drum team was not present (which would normally create a lot of enthusiasm in the fans) but it was still a fun time. It was actually kind of nice not having the big crowd this time. Kansas City is now 3-0 in the three games we have attended.

Went here with the whole family and while the wife did the shopping the kids and I checked out everything else. This a great place to just walk around and look at the animals. I have never seen so many great displays in one spot besides in a museum. We even found some great clothing for our outdoor needs.

I have always wanted to go to an actual Nascar Race and this is the place to go! As big as this place is, it is very organized and so many volunteers to keep everyone informed. Lots of places to choose from to eat, a little pricey but aren't all events like this? You are allowed a small cooler, size allowed is on the website. We chose to go to the concert before the race and saw Sister Hazel, that was awesome, walked around the cars, signed the start/finish line, took a tour around the garages where the racers were getting ready and met so many nice people!!!! This was an event I am happy to check off my bucket list and will possibly be back again!!!! Lots of fun!!!

Imagine a seemingly endless sea of trampolines, all connected to form one massive trampoline surface. Now, imagine that surface enclosed with angled trampolines that allow you to literally bounce off the walls! Sky Zone is the Ultimate Play Experience and unmatched high-flyin' FUN...and it's not just for kids either! Sky Zone is enjoyed by just about any age, shape or physical ability on a regular basis.

We had an amazing time at Great Wolf Lodge! From checking in the staff was professional and customer service was excellent! All the staff that we interacted with from housekeeping, waterpark, stores, they were all very knowledgeable, very professional! This is our 3rd time here and we will definitely be back! The pup pass we got our daughter came in handy! She loved all the goodies she got just by showing her pass! Thank you for an amazing time! The pools outside and the waterpark was alot of fun! Our room was clean and comfortable! I loved our 1st floor room with the patio!

The Lewis & Clark Historic park at Kaw Point is well designed and has some nice amenities. The paved walking trail down by the river is in shade and leads to a nice sculpture of Lewis & Clark at the tip of Kaw Point (confluence of Kansas River and Missouri River). On the ridge where the parking lot is, there is a beautiful memorial for all the vanquished native Indian tribes. Quite a lot of historical information is displayed at this memorial. There is nice outdoor amphitheater with seats made of rocks and cement blocks. This could be a nice place for picnics or presentations. The park has access to the Riverfront Heritage bike trail from the parking lot with a ramp over the highway. So one could visit this park while riding bike on the Riverfront trail. In summary, this park is worth spending a few hours.
