Kansas 4-Hers will be among the crowds headed to Hutchinson this weekend.
The Kansas State Fair kicks off this weekend and draws people from across the state. One group that will be there is the State Treasurer's Office. State Treasurer Steven Johnson says there's a great reason to stop by their booth at the fair.
Johnson's office administers the state's unclaimed property program, which currently holds more than $500,000,000 waiting to be claimed. One in ten people are estimated to have unclaimed property, which could include unpaid life insurance benefits, forgotten bank accounts, and safe deposit boxes. Kansans can search the online database anytime at KansasCash.ks.gov. Visitors to the State Fair booth can also enter to win $529 toward and Learning Quest 529 account. The Fair runs through September 17th.
