What are your eight wonders of Kansas?

It’s not a trick question. The Kansas Sampler Foundation is seeking nominations for the Eight Wonders of Kansas to help boost tourism interest.

Marci Penner of the foundation offered the Joplin (Mo.) Globe a helpful suggestion:

Penner said Cherokee County has other wondrous things that should be considered, including the 13 miles of Route 66 and the Rainbow arch bridge and Eisler Brothers Old Riverton Store along the route.

Nominations will be taken until midnight May 6. The foundation will narrow selections to 24.  People can winnow it down to the final eight by voting for their favorites online from June 1 to Dec. 31.
