Kansas
Salina,
Kansas
is a dynamic, thriving city located near the
very center of the nation. Situated at the
intersection of Interstate Highways 70 and 135,
Salina is a crossroads community. The
seventh largest city in Kansas,
it is the seat of Saline
County and serves as the retail and
commercial center for the region.
Salina
began its existence as a trading post.
When the railroad came through in 1867, rapid
growth came with it. One of the largest
wheat producing areas in the world, flourmills
were naturally one of the first industries.
Agriculture is still a mainstay of Salina?s
economy, though manufacturing and retail are
strong factors also. Leading corporations
are Tony's
Pizza, Exide
Battery and Phillips
Lighting. The aviation industry has
long been tied to Salina. The airfields
here have been used for Air Force training
grounds. Salina, KS was honored to be the
launch field for the Virgin
Atlantic Global Flyer, the first non-stop
global flight. The Salina
Airport and Industrial Center boast the
finest runway facilities in the nation, and act
as a vital refueling site for east-west
transport.
Census
2000 counted Salina?s population at
almost 46,000. These civic-minded
residents received the designation as an All
American City in 1989 for their deep
commitment to their home and the high level of
community participation. The city
celebrates together each year during Santa Fe
Days, the Tri-Rivers
Fair and the Smoky
Hill River Festival. Salina?s Park
Service plants over 60,000 flowers each
year, creating a colorful wonderland throughout
the city?s 600 acres of parks.
Salina,
Kansas stands out as a highly cultural
community. The Arts
and Humanities Commission, established in
1966, provides numerous grants to local artists
and musicians, helping to create an artistic
renaissance in the city. The Salina
Symphony Orchestra and the Steifel
Theatre for the Performing Arts are known
throughout Kansas for their excellence.
The Art
Center Cinema offers the finest in
contemporary film and innovative new technology.
Historic
Downtown
Salina acts as the heart and soul of the
city. This thirty-one-block area is a
pleasure to stroll down, with plazas and
fountains and carefully preserved buildings.
More than 300 businesses thrive in this
atmosphere. Nightclubs and gourmet
eateries abound. A Teen Center awaits the
younger crowd. The Smoky
Hill Museum offers a look into the
prairie?s past. Outside of the city
limits is the Yesteryear
Museum, a twenty-acre facility created
through volunteer effort. The goal is to
have a Living Farm, with working artifacts and
reenactments of rural life on the plains.
Salina,
Kansas is
a vibrant and strong community. Its
robust, diversified economy and the commitment
of its people ensures a prosperous future.
