Lawrence delegation received warm welcome to Algeria as part of World Cup friendship

The last World Cup match in Kansas City was held nearly four months ago, but the positive feelings remain. Organizers have shared some bullish numbers about the impact locally, including 680,000 visitors to Kansas City and direct spending of $570 million during the World Cup. The goodwill created has certainly continued as England made a great impact on the citizens of Prairie Village, where the “Three Lions” had their base camp during the World Cup. And the friendship between Algeria and the city of Lawrence, which hosted the “Desert Foxes” during the tournament, has endured. The Algerian government invited a delegation from Lawrence to visit their country, and that contingent received a warm welcome Monday when they arrived. Among the members in the group are Lawrence Mayor Brad Finkeldei, police officers Dave Ernst and Meghan Bardwell, members of the University of Kansas community, including several members of the band, faculty and staff, and others. Members from Elkader, Iowa, which boasts being the only town in the United States to have a sister city in Algeria, also made the trip. Media members in Algeria shared photos and video of the Lawrence delegation, getting to Algiers, the capital. Elizabeth Aubin, a former

Local counties prepare for CWD ahead of November hunting season

ST. JOSEPH, Mo. (KQTV) -- As deer season approaches, hunters should be aware of a rare but crucial disease that affects members of the deer family. Chronic waste disease, often referred to as CWD, is a fatal, contagious neurological illness that affects deer, elk, moose and caribou. It is spread between deer primarily through direct physical contact and the sharing of bodily fluids like saliva, urine and blood. It can also contaminate the surrounding soil and plants, allowing the disease to infect new deer years after an infected animal has left the area.
