“This year, the annual meeting committee sought to vary from the traditional politics and sports, and present a laid back, entertaining banquet speaker and Rob Riggle is the perfect choice,” stated Mark Ritter, Chamber Chairman. “I think most of our members will recognize Rob as a comedic actor in television and films, but he is also a highly decorated Marine, and a proud Kansan. We are looking forward to a fun and entertaining evening.”
