I spent my Junior High and High School years living in Kansas City.  The metro area has a lot to offer including:

• Kansas Speedway in Kansas City, Kansas

• Nebraska Furniture Mart and Surrounding Shopping (KCK)

• Jesse James Farm in Kearney, Missouri

• The Country Club Plaza

• Nelson-Atkins Art Museum

• Bartle Hall Convention Center (One of the largest buildings on Earth without internal column support)

• Kansas City Chiefs Football at Arrowhead Stadium

• Kansas City Royals Baseball at Kauffman Stadium

• Sporting KC Major League Soccer in KCK

• More Fountains than any City in North America

• Barbecue
