Voters in Fowler, Kansas approved a $1.94 million bond issue that clears the way for construction of a multi-purpose Monolithic Dome facility at the local high school. By a vote of 231 to 192, residents of the small Kansas town approved the first bond for the school district in more than 40 years. Superintendent Sam Seybold said that he is receiving numerous calls from superintendents in other parts of the state who read news reports about the vote, and want to know more. The vote in Kansas made national headlines after local newspaper articles on the project were picked up by the Associated Press news service.
