Roger Marshall visits Garden City, tours airport
April 16, 2021
U.S. Senator Roger Marshall (R-Kansas) visited Garden City on Friday.
During his visit, Marshall toured the Garden City Regional Airport, which received CARES Act funding in 2020 and will begin construction of a new terminal later this year.
Marshall said the new terminal is an incredible thing for southwest Kansas.
"1959 is when this terminal was built and Garden City's grown a lot since then and ... I think there's the opportunity for it to grow even more," he said.
The new terminal will be a great first impression to people visiting the Garden City area for the first time, Marshall said. First impressions are important in this world as businesses, corporations and their leaders need to visit places like Garden City. The updated facility will be a benefit to the area.
