Little Wally, Ambassador for Santa Fe Trail Center Last year, as the COVID-19 virus precautions were being implemented and businesses were asked to close, the staff at the Santa Fe Trail Museum had what seemed like a unique idea to stay in touch with the public. It was decided a little stuffed animal in the form of a bison would represent the Trail Center and serve as an ambassador and voice. So, the staff made a few videos introducing Little Wally and his adventures at the museum. The original idea of a Little Wally ambassador for the museum is credited to the late Becca Hiller, former director of the SFTC. Little Wally is based on an actual bison on exhibit in the Trail Center. “Becca generated the concept of using a little stuffed bison as the voice of the Trail Center,” said Kathleen Foster, Trail Center volunteer. “When the Trail Center was asked to close along with all other businesses because of COVID, we decided a good way to stay in touch
with the public was to have a mascot, named Little Wally, be the voice of the SFTC.” One of the storylines in the videos involves Wally, described as a little brown
bison with big brown eyes, galloping over to greet his friend, Victor, a “handsome little mule” who he hasn’t seen for more than two months.” Victor and Wally are
close in age, young and energetic and sometimes a bit mischievous. As the story continues, Victor had been away and had just returned to the Santa Fe Trail Museum in
Larned. Little Wally was thrilled to see his friend Victor in the museum lobby. Little Wally hugged his friend as he excitedly asked “Where have you been?” Victor was equally excited to see Wally and brayed out that he would tell Wally all about his adventures. Little Wally told of his Christmas and New Year’s celebrations with his Native American friends. Little Wally related that the Trail Center had several guests traveling across the country heading to see families for the holidays. The visitors had stopped to see the museum before driving on to their destinations. Wally shared that he had met and enjoyed visiting with the museum guests and hoped they would come again. Little Wally told Victor about the two young fellows from South Africa working in the United States. He was charmed by their accents and had fun chatting with them about their life in South Africa. They were missing

Other visitors greeted by Wally included a young couple that had driven from Wichita; the young man had grown up in Lewis and wanted to show his girlfriend the museum and where he went to school. Little Wally was super excited to also share that soon a group of homeschool children were also coming to the museum to learn about the Santa Fe Trail. Little Wally missed the groups of school children that currently are not able to take field trips because of COVID. Maybe, best of all, Little Wally told Victor, was the big birthday celebration for Kansas the last week of January. “When is Kansas Day celebrated?” asked Victor. “Well, Kansas’ birthday is January 29,” said Little Wally.

COVID-19 prevention and treatment update Vaccine status and monoclonal antibody treatment It’s been a year since the first COVID-19 case was documented in Wuhan, China. Since then, the disease has spread around the globe and throughout the United States. More than 20 million people in our nation have become infected, and more than 350,000 have died. But there is hope. Vaccines are here, and monoclonal antibody treatment provides a new therapy for patients with
mild to moderate illness. “Believe the science,” says Steve Stites, MD, chief medical officer for The University of Kansas Health System. “It’s not going to lead you astray. Science is bringing us vaccines. Science is bringing us monoclonal antibody treatment. And we will tell you what we know.” “Every day we are moving forward, learning more and providing new treatments and vaccines,” adds Christian Whittington, MD, chief of staff and emergency department director for The University of Kansas Health System Pawnee Valley Campus. “We are not at the finish line yet but getting closer every day. We just need to keep bending the curve and reducing the number of cases in our community. We need everyone to do
their part to stay healthy just a little while longer.” The situation is a dynamic one and changes rapidly. Health system leaders like Dr. Stites and Dr. Whittington have been at the forefront of receiving and sharing important information. The latest on COVID-19 vaccines Multiple pharmaceutical manufacturers have produced COVID-19 vaccines. They are in various stages of FDA approval. Distribution has begun under emergency use authorization. This is special FDA permission to use new drugs in emergency scenarios to promote public health even while late-stage research continues. A CDC volunteer team called the Advisory Committee on
Immunization Practices (ACIP) has met numerous times to discuss and plan vaccine distribution. The committee determined that the first doses of the vaccine will be given to frontline healthcare workers and residents of long-term nursing care
facilities. Production of the vaccine will continue until the general public has access. The vaccine will be given in 2 doses per person. It may be needed annually, though complete information is not yet known.
The University of Kansas Health System created a COVID-19 vaccine FAQ and updates it regularly. You can find it at kansashealthsystem. com/vaccine. See COVID-19, 4

COVID-19, from page 3 What is monoclonal antibody treatment? It sounds a little intimidating, but monoclonal antibody treatment is something to feel good about. It’s a new therapy for people with mild to moderate COVID-19. It is given to eligible patients who test positive for SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, and are believed to be at high risk for developing severe illness. A monoclonal antibody is a medical product produced in a laboratory. These molecules are designed to act just like the antibodies the body would produce to recover from a disease. The laboratoryproduced molecules are given to the patient to mimic the immune system’s reaction to disease – in effect, tricking the body into thinking it has COVID-19 and fighting it off. Monoclonal antibodies for COVID-19 – called bamlanivimab – battle the virus, reducing its ability to cause severe illness or damage. The University of Kansas Health System has received a limited number of bamlanivimab doses. We provide it to eligible patients, who must meet criteria as follows: Patients must meet all of these: • Age > 12 years • Body weight > 40kg • Within 7 days of symptom onset • Confirmed COVID-19 with mild to moderate symptoms • Without increased oxygen requirements • Not actively hospitalized and unlikely to require
Monoclonal antibody treatment is given by infusion on an outpatient basis. It must be given as soon as possible after the positive COVID-19 test result is confirmed, so it’s important to get tested quickly after you notice the first signs or symptoms. Follow the pillars Even as these developments progress, safety standards that have seen us through the pandemic this far still apply and haven’t changed. “Wear a mask, keep your distance, wash your hands, stay at home if you’re sick, and don’t go out and congregate in large groups,” Dr. Stites says. “That’s what’s kept us safe in hospitals. It’s the same science in the community.” “Just because we live and work in rural areas does not mean we’re protected from the virus,” Dr. Whittington adds. “The numbers in our county show this is not the case. It is important that we continue to be cautious and keep ourselves, our families, our friends and our community safe.”
hospitalization due to COVID-19 • Not pregnant or breast feeding • No history of a positive SARS-CoV-2 antibody • Has not received SARSCoV-2 convalescent plasma or another SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibody And one of these: • Age > 65 years
• BMI > 35 kg/m2 • Chronic kidney disease of stage IV or above, diabetes mellitus, active cancer, solid organ transplant recipient, HIV with inadequate CD4 count, cirrhosis, sickle cell disease or humoral immunity defects (inherited, due to chemotherapy or other immunosuppressant therapy) • Age > 55 years with

The old Hillside Elementary School now serves as the venue for Hillside Envisions.
Old Hillside School now helps prospective businesses BY TRAVIS HENDRYX thendryx@gbtribune.com
A few years ago, Larned’s Hillside Elementary School closed its doors as a public education facility. But recently, local citizens initiated a campaign to save the building and surrounding property and convert it into a multipurpose facility to benefit residents of Pawnee County. The initiative, known as Hillside Envisions, seeks to empower county residents through education, skill development and business opportunity. “As neighbors and friends, we wanted to save Hillside Elementary, both the building and surrounding property, to benefit not only the neighborhood, but Larned, Pawnee County and surrounding communities,” said Rita Kurtz, who serves as a manager for Envisions. She added that four individual partners, with equal ownership, comprise the management. “We, collectively,
have 170 adult years as residents of Pawnee County and/or counties within a 50 mile radius,” she said. They include: Dody Burkey (retired flight attendant), Brenda WestHagerman (attorney), Wayne Hagerman (farm and ag) and Kurtz who is a real estate broker. The Hillside School provides the perfect venue for Envisions, according to Kurtz. “We saw in the local newspaper that the local USD 495 School Board was accepting proposals and offers to purchase four closed former school buildings at their next meeting that was just a few days away,” she said. “We scrambled a few business professionals together and decided to go for it. The main reason was to preserve a piece of Larned history by preventing the building from being razed and demolished.” Like many rural schools in the 50s which were closed due to consolidation, Hillside Elementary and two other
elementary schools have come full circle. Larned’s three schools were closed and replaced by one new school. Hillside Elementary remains; it is now Hillside Envisions - Pawnee Co. Inc. and was established as a 501(c)3 non-profit corporation in November, 2018. “Our goals and objectives center around education, skill development, and business opportunity,” aid Kurtz. “We want to facilitate educational opportunity at multiple levels to advance mental, physical, social and cultural knowledge and skills.” Kurtz said the building is used for small and startup businesses, for professional growth and development and to facilitate collaborative and networking opportunity. “We use rental fees to pay for utilities, fees and taxes, maintenance and upkeep, and for improvements for both the building and grounds, yet remain competitively priced,” she said. “Our long-range goal

is that Hillside Envisions will one day reach sustainability and continue to have a positive impact for the neighborhood, Larned, Pawnee County, and the surrounding communities.” Another function of the facility is to serve as a venue for local clubs and organizations. “At this time we are providing a home base for the VFW Post 7271 and the VFW Auxiliary to conduct their monthly meetings and to hold future functions like fundraising for veterans’ needs,” said Kurtz. “They hope to bring back Taco Tuesdays for the community when the time is appropriate. We are also renting out a classroom for the Pawnee Valley Auxiliary ladies to quilt and sew goods for their fundraising and volunteer activities.” Kurtz added that farmers markets were held last year throughout the summer and fall. “We were able to provide vendors outside space to set up
and sell a variety of vegetables, fruit, metal art, home-crafted bird houses, wind chimes, decorative items, baked goods, masks and other unique items.” As time and funds allow, Envisions hopes to add a more functional kitchen for a variety of activities and possible commercial and public use. “We are also actively researching high speed internet for this area and how we could make that a reality,” Kurtz said. For Kurtz, preserving a part of Larned’s history is part of what makes this initiative rewarding. “As I said, we wanted to save the building and its history, but also to move forward and improve the facility to meet the growing wants and needs of our community,” said Kurtz. “We are seeking other options and alternatives as to grow alongside our peers and the people in Pawnee County and our surrounding area, to provide a niche that is not currently available.”

HOT HOUSING MARKET IN LARNED What’s behind it? BY CHARLES TABLER Special to the Tribune
It is a booming market in housing in Larned and Pawnee County as Realtors report the sales of numerous properties in recent months. What’s behind it? Purchases of homes in Larned and Pawnee County appear to be spurred by a number of factors. Some of it is, no doubt, due to finance situations such as low interest rates but there seems to be other factors and those reasons point to a promising future for Larned and other Midwestern locations. Lisa Schartz of Picket Fence Real Estate stated, “Definitely we are seeing a sales uptick in recent months. Houses are selling and there is a lot of interest.” She said there appear to be numerous reasons. “I think the low interest rates are some of it but not all of it. There is a lot of interest from people from other parts of the country that are looking to relocate for numerous reasons.” Del Fischer of Clock Realty and Insurance offered, “It’s a mixed bag. Some are looking to retire here, some are attracted to the lower cost of living here. It’s multiple reasons but no doubt, we’ve had a lot of inquires from a lot of other states. We do have a lot of jobs in this area and some that work here in Larned but are driving 30-70 miles are tired of that and are considering moving here for their work.”

Chris Froetschner of Carr Auction and Real Estate said, “More people are wanting a rural community. I think some are a little tired of the bigger cities and all of those problems. We’ve definitely seen an influx of out-of-state calls.” He said that California and Colorado are where many people are calling from.
“Low interest rates are definitely a factor,” he added. A common thread from all three agencies is that people with children are looking for a place that facilitates in-classroom instruction. Many parents do not like the idea of remote learning and feel that their children are not receiving a good

education. “I doubt this is particular to Larned and Pawnee County,” Schartz said. “I’m sure that this interest in moving to the Midwest is going on all over Kansas and neighboring states. People are finding out that they can sell their home in some of these states and move to the Midwest and
internet has really helped people from other parts of the country to check out our homes and our city. Another big factor is that more and more people are working from their homes so they don’t have to live in a big city with all of its problems.” Froetschner echoed those sentiments. “More folks are looking to improve their lifestyle and a lot of people are tired of the problems they are having to deal with. It’s not unusual to have customers get on their computer and check out our properties before we’ve even talked to them.” Another asset in attracting people to the area has been Larned’s branding effort which includes promotional videos showcasing Larned and Pawnee County. The branding campaign began in April of 2018. “As we continue to develop the community brand, people will begin to see more and more calls to action to relocate to the community or business/employment calls to action,” said Mayor William Nusser. COVID-19 concerns throughout the country have also prompted many to consider relocating to a small-town atmosphere. Public restrictions in the Midwest have been far less than those of states on the two coasts.

WORKING WITH THE FLOW Larned water system, city pool among Progress, 2021 highlights BY TRAVIS HENDRYX thendryx@gbtribune.com
LARNED — After more than a century of budgetary tie ups and other snags, the City of Larned is poised to launch a long-needed overhaul of its water distribution system in 2021. With assistance through a Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), the city looks to wrap up the later phases of replacing the system this year. In 2019, the city applied for and was awarded CDBG funds to work on a significant portion of the water distribution system that dates back to the 1880s. Areas that will be replaced are the original installation, according to Mayor William Nusser.
“It’s hard to believe, but that is the case for Larned and many other communities dealing with having to replace their water system,” Nusser said. “However, we’re taking the steps to make sure we make progress in responsible replacement of our system.” Nusser said applying for and being awarded the CDBG funding was a key component in the city moving forward with the project. The 50% matching grant matches up to $600,000, which helped get the $1.2 million project rolling. This leaves the city’s portion at $598,497. He said it was determined that the city would break up the project into phases, completing the phases as funds were available. “With the CDBG money and our match, we’re able to knock out several of the phases with this initial project.” Nusser noted that the goal is to be able to apply for a second round of funding once completion of the first project is complete. He added that another key point in the process
was the City Council’s consensus on limiting or eliminating major debt bond projects. “After receiving presentations from multiple bond companies about doing a major bond project, the council agreed we didn’t want to do a project that had 30 to 40 debt payments,” said Nusser. Although it’s difficult to pinpoint one or two specific road blocks that have held up progress of the WDS replacement project for more than 140 years, Nusser said distractions with other projects and needs of the city competed for attention. “Specifically, I wouldn’t know over the years. But anytime, as a municipality, it can be easy to get sidetracked from longer term projects just trying to get through the day to day,” he said. “Also budgetary issues are always a consideration for councils.” According to Nusser, most of the work in 2020 centered around development of engineering design. “So the project has not been impacted greatly by the ongoing COVID pandemic,” he said.
When asked how the project will temporarily effect daily life for Larned citizens, Nusser said, because of the invasive nature of the work, that water services will be unavailable for certain periods. “There will be temporary shutoffs as we switch to the new system and expect to see construction throughout the town,” he said. Progress on city pool Another point of progress, which is also a hot button topic, is the city’s upgrade of the current municipal swimming pool. “I believe this is an important issue for our citizens,” said Nusser. “People care about our community pool which is a great thing. As a community, we just reached a point that we needed to do something.” Although a new pool design was not considered, Nusser said the city has taken significant steps in improving the current pool’s infrastructure. In 2020, the city installed a brand new filtration and circulatory system. Nusser said the only

remaining parts of the pool are the concrete walls, but all the factors that could have been problematic have been addressed. “We filled in all the cracks, upgraded the electric system and we are in the process of replacing the deck,” he said. “I think this will be something our pool patrons will be proud of and will enjoy for many years to come.” Nusser said outsourcing the improvements to the city pool would cost around $900,000. “Through our collaborations with the pool task force, we determined that aside from some minor work by some local contractors, a lot of the labor could be done in house,” he said, noting that, as a result, the cost to upgrade the pool has been cut to $100,000. “Once that dollar number changed, it really was the momentum we needed to start the work on our pool.” Nusser said completion of the new deck and some touch up work should be done well before the pool opens for the season right after Memorial Day.
Community branding Nusser also touched on the city’s branding campaign and said greater focus and effort is being used to attract businesses and families to Larned. “In April of 2018, we started the community branding campaign,” said Nusser. “As we continue to develop the community brand, folks will begin to see more and more calls to action to relocate to the community.” Team Effort Nusser attributed much of the city’s progress to city staff. “Dale (Vanderhoof) at the sewer plant and his guys have done tremendous work,” said Nusser, adding the sanitation department has also seen growth within its customer base and services provided. “Also, expanding our electrical capacity to area businesses in 2020 was a significant project for us.” he said. “Overall, I’m very happy with our progress in providing reliable utility and emergency services to our community,” the mayor said.
