Posted on    by

A lot of Haysvillians were excited to see Hometown boys and band Soulicit on the schedule to perform at this years Fall Festival but then disappointed to hear the band had to make a bittersweet decision to cancel the show so they could make a trip to Florida to record their upcoming album. Soulicit fans dont fret… You still have a couple chances to see the band before they start their first national tour in January…

From the Wichita Business Journal…

Last Night’s Earthquake

Posted on    by

Last night Haysville was shaken by a 5.6 Magnitude earthquake around 10:53pm. The earthquake epicenter was in Oklahoma just East of OKC but it was felt as far away as here in Kansas, Missouri, Illinois, Arkansas, Texas and Tennessee.
I believe this may be the strongest earthquake to ever shake Haysville.

A few comments about the quake from our Facebook page…

Shook the glasses in our cabinets.

Im used to our 2 story house being shaken around a lot by the wind (like we had today) but what made it so surreal was that we were in the basement and it was moving. Took a minute to realize what was actually happening.

Us too!!! Crazy

We are visiting family in Ark City…shook the cabinets and the lights were swinging. Crazy!

I actually heard it coming… sounded like distant thunder, then it shook pretty good, followed by a swaying motion for a few seconds. rattled the dishes in the kitchen
