What would Olive Garvey think if the Riordan Clinic leaves its famous domes?

Not many legacies start with an octogenarian woman who, while sitting under an old-fashioned hair dryer, gets a spark of inspiration that develops into an organization still going strong more than half a century later. That’s what happened with Olive White Garvey and her idea for Wichita’s Center for the Improvement of Human Functioning, which today is known as the Riordan Clinic. Now that the clinic is considering leaving the 92 acres Garvey’s family foundation gave the nonprofit, which is known for its prominent eight geodesic domes and pyramid along K-96, vice president of operations Steve Howard said the late Garvey still is directing the clinic’s future. “It’s important to stay grounded in her vision for the place.” The clinic’s management and board is considering a possible move downtown to not only be part of a growing medical and academic corridor but also to have an updated, more modern facility that more people might associate with medical care. “The Riordan Clinic as a facility has always had trouble communicating what takes place in those domes,” Howard said. Garvey’s vision created what has become an internationally-known — sometimes better outside of Kansas than in — research facility and center devoted to

He grew up idolizing Wichita soccer legends. Now Jerry Treat is one

Jerry Treat had never even heard of soccer when he walked across the street to meet his new neighbor. It was October 1975. Treat was 7 years old, his family had just moved into a new neighborhood in Wichita, and he was looking to make a friend. The boy had a question: Did Jerry want to play soccer? Soccer? What was that? Treat had no idea, but he followed his new friend into the backyard to find out. More than five decades later, the little boy who didn’t even know soccer existed has retired as one of the most accomplished coaches in Kansas history. And he couldn’t have scripted a more fitting farewell. On Saturday, Treat coached the final game of his career, guiding Rose Hill to a 5-0 victory over Berean Academy in the Class 4-1A boys soccer state championship game in Topeka. It was his fourth state championship at Rose Hill, his fifth overall and the culmination of a coaching career that began in 1992 and included 359 victories. To appreciate what Treat built, consider the history of Kansas small-school soccer. Since Class 4-1A was established in 2000, private schools have won 21 of the 27 boys soccer

Crumbl competitor coming to Wichita serves cookies that may be even more decadent

A new cookie chain is entering the Wichita market, and its specialty is gooey, deep-dish cookies with melty centers. One of its slogans: “Calories are units of joy. Make yours count.” Signs have just gone up at the strip center at 8918 W. 21st St. for Crave , a Utah-based chain that specializes in cookies that are two-inches high. Founded in 2019, the chain now has more than 60 locations across 21 states. A representative of Caro Development , which owns the strip center where Crave will open, confirmed that a local franchisee has been working on the shop for a while. It sits next door to Sharky’s Island Bites . I reached out to the local franchisee for more details, including a timeline for opening, and will update this story when I hear back. Crave seems to subtly take aim at struggling competitor Crumbl Cookies on its website, particularly in a section titled “The $5 Cookie Problem.” The section reads, “You’ve felt it. That sinking moment when you bite into an expensive cookie and realize it’s just chocolate chip with different frosting. Again. The rotating cookie industry thinks swapping toppings equals innovation. Your taste buds know better. When you’re
