The Sandbar has always been blessed to get a lot of publicity, usually from the common sources like the local and campus newspapers, but also sometimes from an unexpected source.
Dave's mom got her hands on a copy of Women's Focus magazine, which is a publication in Wichita that caters, obviously, to women. The August 2008 edition's theme was education, so the Focus on Travel section featured a KU journalism student's tour of her college town.

You can read the rest of the article here (it's a PDF and you'll have to flip ahead to page 33/34 for the article). Next month, the column will feature a review of Manhattan, so check back on their website to see what our rivals down the road have to offer.

I’ll be impressed when I see the SB in Vogue. Or maybe Playboy.
yeah, we heard about the mention in triathlete mag! it was a great picture.
i’ll have that posted soon.
I think a friend of mine has a copy of that mag. I’ll try to get ahold of it. BTW, Debbie if you’d like to make a plug for my MS Ride page, I’ve got a week left until it happens. Here’s the link:
