The recent renovation is already 90% grown in and this place will be immaculate in a matter of months. They hosted a Symetra and All Pro Tour, among other events in the past. And I expect they will become a regular stop for a handful of tours going forward.

Good track but overrated in my opinion. Gets talked about as one of the best in Kansas and it’s good but not great.
