Tulips on Troost: TOT Honored at Tonight's Town Hall meeting

Tulips on Troost aims to change the face of Troost Avenue by planting one million tulips along the Avenue in honor of an early Kansas City leader, Dr. Benoist Troost. Through this mission, we hope to inspire and motivate the citizens of Kansas City to recognize the value of neighborhood capital improvements and beautification in some of the city's most under-served neighborhoods. Tulips are just on the surface—our deep-rooted goal is to use a beautiful, accessible thing like a tulip to represent positive change on Troost and to let the city know that Troost is worth our time, efforts, and resources.

Tulips on Troost has been chosen as one of the city's "school and neighborhood success stories" by the Mayor's Office to be honored at TONIGHT's Citywide Schools First Town Hall meeting Monday, May 17 beginning at 6:00PM at the Sprint Center. Among some 800 special proclamations, TOT has been chosen to be one of 8 that will be honored on stage at the event. Of course, we want TOT be the best represented and the MOST CHEERED so, that means YOU should attend.

Join us at 5pm at P&L's FLYING SAUCER (101 E. 13th Street) for a Dutch beer tasting in honor of Troost's Dutch roots (historical roots AND tulip bulb roots!) prior to the Town Hall meeting.
