Start your morning with purpose at the Ottawa Area Chamber’s Eggs & Issues 2025—a signature public policy breakfast bringing together local leaders, educators, and engaged citizens for a timely and vital conversation. This year’s focus: School Funding & the Future of Education in Franklin County.

We’re honored to welcome Dr. Frank Harwood, Deputy Commissioner at the Kansas State Department of Education, as our featured speaker. Dr. Harwood will break down how evolving state and federal funding models are shaping the educational landscape—what’s working, what’s changing, and what it means for our local districts, students, workforce, and economic development.

Whether you're a parent, business owner, educator, or policymaker, this is your opportunity to better understand the financial backbone of our schools and participate in a meaningful dialogue about the future of education in our region.

Tickets are $12 and include a hot breakfast and guided discussion.
