The Junction City Capital Campaign is nearing the finish line and has raised over $1.03 million to go towards economic development.

Jerry Hinson, Campaign Director updated the Economic Development Commission Advisory Committee Thursday.

“As we sit here today we have 82 investors, $1,037,750., we have some others that are pending decision. I think the goal is within sight. Can we exceed that? Yes. I think we’ve done to date what we said we were going to do,” said Hinson.

The campaign has brought investors to the table from all over the region,”from Topeka to Salina.”

The Campaign will wrap up on April 30th and the investors will meet on May 5th to elect the inaugural campaign board made up of investors to oversee how the campaign funds are distributed.
