⛲️ In-Flight Coffee

Ready for Take Off: Flight Crew Overland Park opened this past Monday at 8025 Santa Fe Dr. in the heart of downtown OP. The theme is very apparent, with menu items having aviation-themed names, plane-focused artwork and decor, and even old airplane seats to settle into.

In-Flight Beverages: The menu features a lineup of espresso-based drinks using coffee from Post Coffee Company, matcha, chai, fresh-baked pastries, and more.

Hike On Down: Wander along ten miles of trails winding through towering cottonwood trees, sprawling prairie, and limestone bluffs. You can even bring your furry friend along for the walk — leashed pets are permitted on the trails and prairie, accessible through the East Kiosk Entrance.

Outdoor Adventures: For a more mellow outing, experience the childlike delight of the train garden, and take in the scenic views around every twist and turn. We even have adventures for the brain — unleash your creativity at one of our workshops, or quench your curiosity at the environmental education center. 

Baby Bump, Super Bowl Bump?: Fans are already pointing to a fun pattern. In each season of Brittany’s previous pregnancies, 2020, 2022, and 2024, the Chiefs made the Super Bowl, winning it in 2022. This year’s squad has some work to do, sitting second in the AFC West after a 2-1 stretch that included a loss to Denver.

Family Huddle: The baby will join big sisters Sterling and Golden and brother Bronze. The couple are high school sweethearts from Whitehouse, Texas. Brittany, a former college soccer player, is also a co-owner of the KC Current, who are one win away from the NWSL Championship.

🎄 Holiday Hideaway: Looking for a unique place to gather with family and friends this holiday season? Field’s Edge Cabin is the place! A rustic cabin with a modern addition tucked on 10+ acres just 30 minutes south of the KC metro.*

🏥 Back in Network: Children’s Mercy will join UnitedHealthcare’s ACA Marketplace network, giving families an in-network option again after Medica’s exit left no KC-area Marketplace plan covering the hospital for 2027. Open enrollment is underway now.

🏙️ Down(town) by the River(side): Riverside could be getting a downtown district, thanks to a new federal investment opportunity that would help draw private dollars to the Northland suburb.

🏈 Touch-Downs: The Chiefs traded 2027 fourth- and fifth-round picks to the Colts for WR Josh Downs, adding help after Tyquan Thornton’s ankle surgery and Xavier Worthy’s hamstring injury. Downs led Indy in receiving yards last season.

🏛️ Plaza Makeover: The City Council could vote today on a $210 million TIF plan for the Country Club Plaza, splitting money between owner Gillon Property Group’s projects and public fixes like sewer separation, sidewalks, and streetlights.
