The Chamber in Hays, Kansas regrets to announce the postponement of the highly anticipated Legislative Coffee event initially scheduled for April 6.

Due to the anticipated late session of the Kansas Legislature April 5, the event has been rescheduled to take place on April 13 at 8:30 a.m. at the Hays Public Library, 1205 Main.

Sarah Wasinger, President and CEO of The Chamber, said postponing the event keeps our legislators from having to drive through the night after the session to make the event.

“The safety and well-being of our participating elected officials is a top priority for us,” Wasinger said. “With the Kansas Legislature expected to convene into the late hours, we felt it was imperative they do not have to make a dangerous, very late-night drive."

Wasinger extended her gratitude to the premier sponsors, The Hays Daily News and Midwest Energy, for their unwavering support. She also expressed appreciation to the venue Sponsor, The Hays Public Library, coffee sponsor Breathe Coffee House, and Cathy's Breads for their flexibility and willingness to accommodate the rescheduling of the event.

“The Legislative Coffee serves as a vital platform for fostering dialogue and collaboration between community members and elected officials,” Wasinger said. “Despite the postponement, The Chamber remains committed to providing this opportunity for meaningful engagement and looks forward to hosting a successful event on April 13.”
