[Wichita-SCCA] newspaper

[Tom Zickuhr]

I still think we can and should get events listed in the Sunday Eagle
"Wichita on Wheels" section.  I worked it out with SCCA the year before last
only to have the Eagle edit it down and delete some important info.  I was
forgiven by the SCCA.

I think we could meet the SCCA and Eagle's requirements, but it would
require just listing a date and a phone number to call for info.  Anyone
want to volunteer to take calls?
