The Flint Hills Discovery Center is the planned focal point of the City of Manhattan's South End Redevelopment project and the topic for discussion at 7 tonight in Forum Hall.

The K-State Parks and Wildlife Managament club is sponsoring a discussion called "Creating a Sense of Place," lead by Bob Workman, the project's director.

Chad Erpelding, senior in park management and conservation and president of the club, said he thought community members should attend because of its educational benefits to the community.

"We hope it's going to make a huge impact on the community and K-State," he said.

"There's a lot of speculation and we hope to educate and inspire people to promote how much the Flint Hills are part of the Manhattan community and embrace the natural and historical content of it," said Erpelding.
