Kansas??????

Post by 260 Striker »

While doing a review of the bylaws recently I noticed "Kansas" is mentioned five times. Seems like IHMSA got incorporated in KS. Do any of you old timers know why KS was used? I guess I would have thought ID since that was where Elgin lived. Maybe one of the early founders lived in KS and submitted the official paperwork. Just curious.

I have heard "The Kansas Statutes" mentioned many times in the past, but do not know anything more than that.
