Dan Meers, also known as K.C. Wolf, had a little bit of fun off the football field while visiting Scott City and Leoti this past January.
The Kansas City Chiefs’ Mascot Hall of Famer travels the world sharing his story of tragedy and perseverance, while having a lot of fun. Wild and rowdy K.C. surprised students at Scott City and Leoti schools during a two-day visit.
Each evening, the more subdued Meers took off the costume and shared with the communities an inspirational message of life and leadership. Students and attendees had the opportunity to pose with K.C. and Meers for photos and autographs.
Meers is the first presenter in the Cooperative Lecture Series, a new collaboration between Wheatland Electric Cooperative Inc. and Scott Cooperative Association.
The series is the brainchild of Jason Baker, CEO of Scott Co-op.
“I attend these seminars and hear amazing speakers that get me excited to return to work with renewed passion and I just wanted to bring some of that enjoyment and inspiration to our local communities as well,” Baker said.
He hopes to bring a new speaker or presentation to the community on an annual basis.
“When Scott Co-op approached us about this series, we knew it was something that we wanted to be a part of,” says Alli Conine, director of member services and corporate communications at Wheatland Electric. “This is what Wheatland is all about — investing in our communities and bringing initiatives that will resonate with our members.”
Scott Co-op is a Wheatland member serving Scott and Wichita counties.
