Gov. Sam Brownback, Lt. Gov. Jeff Colyer and KDHE Secretary Bob Moser celebrated the more than 5-thousand kansans who participated on Tuesday.

The Kansas Brownfields Program has been selected to receive $600,000 from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Brownfields Assessment, Revolving Loan Fund and Cleanup Grants program.

This is one in a series of vignettes celebrating the state's history. The series' name comes from the state motto, "Ad astra per aspera: To the stars through difficulties." Of the hundreds of battles fought during the Civil War, four were fought on Kansas soil, and at least two dozen skirmishes were fought in Kansas.

Pulp Images in conjunction with a team of artists and experts from 427design.com have paired up to preserve these artistic gems.
