About the host
Hosted by Rebecca Katzenmeier
We fell in love with the Flint Hills tallgrass prairie when we each came to Manhattan to attend Kansas State University. Now, some 25 years after graduating, we have made the Flint Hills our home. Together with our three children, we enjoy the charm of Manhattan living, K-State sports, and the great outdoors of this special place.

Christian Track, and Mike Goss Tennis Stadium); 1.3 miles from City Park; 2 miles from historic downtown; 2.3 miles from the Flint Hills Discovery Center; 4.3 miles from Prairiewood Tallgrass Preserve; 5 miles from Colbert Hills and Stagg golf courses; and 7 miles from Tuttle Creek State Park.
