Welcome to MHK Today!
[ Special Preview of MHK Today’s Launch ]
Happy 2019, Manhattan!
And …
Welcome to MHK Today!
MHK Today is Manhattan’s new go-to for what’s going on around our happening little city. The big goal of this site is to enable Manhattanites to become the country’s most engaged citizens. Packing the MHS gym for basketball, selling out performances at The MAC two weeks before opening night, and all finding smaller communities to geek-out on some passion with new, similarly geeky friends, are all ways we’d like to help MHKers engage to grow a richer community for all to enjoy.
We have BIG plans to meet that BIG goal! That being said, we are a grassroots operation on a shoestring budget and will build into what we want to be for Manhattan over time. Starting today–New Year’s Day, 2019–we are going to make our site the best place to find out what’s Manhappening. With daily morning posts for you to plan the rest of your day, and weekly posts for those of you less spontaneous, MHK Today provides a simple format to easily determine what you’d like to do. Finally, a constantly updated calendar consolidates events calendars from around town to allow you to coordinate those big annual events to which you might invite your friends or family from KC or Wichita. So, again, welcome to MHK Today! We hope you enjoy the site and it helps you better enjoy our happening little city.
