Soft & Sour: The storefront is located at 11228 W. 135th St. and, as of now, is open every Saturday at 9am until sell-out. Menus will be posted on their social media channels, and we recommend arriving early. The storefront also offers an automated coffee bar.

Holy Flavors: What started as a pop-up at local farmers’ markets has grown into one of Kansas City’s most popular treat destinations. Founder Jessica Dunkel is a trained food scientist who has crafted sweet and savory doughnuts like Sweet Corn & Elote (pictured above), Sweet Potato Creme Brulee, Peaches & Honey Yogurt, and many more.

Bad Gas: Radon is a radioactive gas you can’t smell, common in the Kansas City area. It’s the second leading cause of lung cancer, contributing to about 21,000 deaths each year in the U.S. The only way to know your home’s radon level is to test for it, which the EPA recommends doing every two years. Even if you’ve tested before, levels can change with seasons, renovations, and soil conditions.

Local Solution: That’s where Rhino Metrics KC comes in. They’re a local, nationally-certified radon testing company using lab-calibrated monitors and easy-to-read reports, whether you’re settling into a home or staying put long-term.

Multiple themed routes will highlight different neighborhoods and business categories throughout the tournament.

Benefits include inclusion in official Soda Hunt routes and digital maps, a unique QR code to drive in-store engagement, promotion via Soda Hunt's marketing channels, and increased foot traffic during one of the world's largest sporting events.
