ELLINWOOD — When the Ellinwood City Council met Tuesday night, they heard a presentation by Jacque Isern and Lindsay Bogner of the Ellinwood Chamber of Commerce concerning the need for update marketing materials for the city. It has been more than 10 years since the last time the Chamber created a brochure.“We’re due for something new,” Bogner remarked.With a fresh effort being made by the Ellinwood Historical Society to increase historical tourism to the area, members Joe and Joyce Schulte have shared brochures they’ve brought home from recent travels to Iowa. Isern and Bogner liked what they saw, and began formulating a plan to create a multi-page booklet filled with photos and information about the city and local resources.
