A week each May opens up the chance for JCCC faculty and staff to venture across Kansas and really see what the state is all about. The journey touches down in places like Salina, Lindsborg, Nicodemus, Lucas, Hays, Victoria, Dodge City, Garden City, Mullinville, Goessel, and Council Grove—stopping long enough to dig into local history, meet the people shaping communities, and understand how geography and economy shape life here. Whether winter has just released its grip or spring is settling in, participants explore the art, environment, and heritage that define Kansas beyond Johnson County borders. Through visits to significant landmarks, conversations with local figures, and thoughtful preparation materials, the experience builds genuine insight into what Kansas culture really means. It's designed for people who work or live here but haven't yet discovered the full story of their own state.
