On June 19, 1865, Union troops arrived in Galveston, Texas with the news that the more than 250,000 enslaved Black people in the state were free, nearly two and a half years after the signing of the Emancipation Proclamation.

Juneteenth became a Federal holiday in 2021 and we hope you’ll join us in recognizing this step toward realizing the promise of true liberty for all. Vireo’s offices will be closed on June 19 and we encourage you to join the celebration wherever you are.

Later this summer, we’ll be cutting the ribbon on and re-opening Boston Daniels Park, honoring the first black Chief of Police in Kansas City, Kansas. We hope you’ll join us as we remember this extraordinary individual and his commitment to our community.

There’s a new little bit of paradise, right off the highway in Kansas City, Kansas. Margaritaville Hotel is set to open to guests on Thursday, and it’s a different kind of destination for sure. Aside from the 228 rooms (including 11 suites – one with a Jimmy Buffet theme) there are spacious indoor and outdoor pools, four eateries and a chill vibe. Vireo is proud to be a part of this project and team with Generator Studio, and others! Visit Kansas City Kansas.

Vireo and George Butler Associates (GBA) staff were excited to host an open house with the City of Excelsior Springs on Tuesday March 7, 2023.

A total of 45 people from the community attended the open house, which was held at the Excelsior Springs Museum. The Excelsior Citizen live streamed the event for those people in the community who couldn’t attend the presentation.

The primary goal of the watershed study has been to develop solutions so that flooding will be less frequent, less extensive, less damaging, and less dangerous.
