Swims & Sweeps new artwork at 6th and Topeka Boulevard.

Has anyone seen the new art piece on the side of Swims & Sweeps? I couldn't get a picture of it while driving by. It's a larger version of the "Comedian" or the banana and ducktape.

Just a few of questions about relocation…

Daughter just moved to Topeka. I’m concerned about the snow, as she has no experience with driving or living where it snows.
How bad does it get? Any suggestions regarding safety? Is it true that sometimes she may not be able to get to her house after work, or get to work in the morning due to the snow?
Also, are there frequent tornadoes and how alert does she need to be, what can she do given that she’ll be living in an apartment complex with no basement?

Board Game Bash at Public Library

Has anyone attended one of the Board Game Bash’s at the library? They sound great but wasn’t sure how many people attend and what kind of games are played. Just wanted a little more info before I go to one. Thanks.

Does anyone have any decent pictures of the early 90’s Great Topeka Bike Race logos?

I was really hoping to remake one of them as I loved doing those races, but they have been impossible to find even a shred of their existence on the internet.

First World Cup fan interaction results is a “It’s Topeka” shrug.

Thought there might be some appreciation for this interaction here. I was walking down Jackson and at 7th street a man with his daughter waived me down and wanted directions. He was wearing an Argentina jersey and had an accent. He asked me where downtown was. I pointed to Kansas ave and Evergy Plaza. He looked aghast. He then said “We saw a sign saying ‘historic downtown’”. At which point all I could do was give him the It’s Topeka shrug. They both said thank you and walked away with a clear look of “Why even make that sign.” lol

Going out.

Hello! I'm a guy in his early 20s and where are some places where I can possibly meet new people or make new friends my age? Maybe there's a certain cafe I could go to for meeting new people or just a specific place? Not sure if Topeka has that many options that I'm aware of, I'll also consider going to Lawrence. Any advice would be great, thank you.

I’m looking for a commercial kitchen to rent space out to me so I can start up my food business. Know anywhere like that?

I’d be needing a dedicated dry storage and freezer space, an oven to bake in and a place to keep my ice cream maker. I tried searching for a commissary kitchen with no luck. Got any ideas for someone with a kitchen that might consider renting me out some space and time in their kitchen?
