K-Staters from the Kansas City area gathered to celebrate their purple pride and raise funds for student scholarships at the 12th annual Wabash CannonBall Kansas City on Feb. 23 at the Overland Park Convention Center.
The elegant evening of dining, dancing and donating drew a crowd of nearly 800 K-State alumni, supporters and university administrators. In the first 12 years, the event has built an endowment of nearly $2.3 million and funded more than 513 scholarships — totaling nearly $1.3 million — for Kansas City-area high school students to attend K-State.
“Thank you to all of our alumni and supporters who helped us celebrate K-State at the 12th annual Wabash CannonBall Kansas City,” said Andrea Bryant Gladin ’02, director of alumni programs. “Your generous support of scholarships makes it possible for future generations of Wildcats to attend K-State. Thank you!”
