Chamber Voice Podcast Ep. 30 Kent Eikenberry

Kent Eikenberry : Listening to my heart   Leoti, Kansas   Leoti, pronounced "Lee-OH-Tah." is a city in and the county seat of Wichita County, Kansas, United States.[6] As of the 2010 census, the city population was 1,534.[7]   History[edit] Leoti was founded in 1885[8] by a company of men from Garden City, Kansas. Two years later, in 1887, it was involved in the bloodiest county seat fight in the history of the American West. The shoot-out was on February 27, 1887, when men—some would say hired gunmen—from Leoti, went to the neighboring, rival town of Coronado and left several people dead and wounded. A small town called Farmer City which was located between Coronado and Leoti, was hoped by some to become the county seat—which would end the fighting. Leoti later won the right to become the county seat and now the two other towns consist mainly of farmland.  ______ Kansas State University https://www.k-state.edu Experience the Wildcat Way It doesn't matter if you ask a long-time professor, recent graduate, passionate alum or a fresh-eyed freshman.
