The gym at the Junction City Municipal Building was full of employers for the Patriot Day Job Fair Thursday put on by Kansas Works.

Gary Westerman, Local Veteran Employment Rep with KansasWorks explained they had about 50 employers from across the area, and even nation.

“Today we had about 50 employers that came in from all around the surrounding areas, even Topeka, and even a couple from out-of-state, to advocate for Veterans and their family members, as well as, the area if anybody is looking for employment to come in and get a job,” said Westerman.

Westerman said that he thought the turnout from job seekers may have been a little light but he knew of at least ten people walked out with an interview lined up with one of the employers at the job fair.
