HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The monthly Hutchinson/Reno County Chamber luncheon is coming up Wednesday, Aug. 16.
"That will be at 11:45 a.m., over at Stringer Fine Arts Center," said Debra Teufel with the Chamber. "We're very thankful for Reno County Health Department being our sponsor this month, but also for Seth Dewey, who also works in public health for our community and for Reno County. He leads a drug task force in our community that is looking at all of the challenges around substance misuse in the community and how do we as a community come together to solve those challenges? He's done a lot of work in that regard."
In speaking to the Chamber, Dewey wants to be sure that businesses know what their risks and rewards are of helping those with substance use disorders get better.
"He's going to really focus this time on the dollars and cents of substance misuse and how it effects the workplace and how it effects our member businesses," Teufel said. "We're looking forward to hearing from Seth. We also will have, kind of a dual feature that day, because Bryan Schulz is going to give a preview to all of the fun things coming up at the Kansas State Fair. That is approaching quickly."
Please contact Belinda McClanahan at 620.662.3391 to attend, or register online. If you do not have a 2023 FLASH PASS, the cost to attend is $25 per person for members or $35 for non-members.
