WHERE WE LIVE

You are invited to attend a book talk at the 
Overland Park Historical Society’s Discovery Center

Joe Hoagland's wife, Norma is a historian and has written
two biographies.  Her publisher asked her to write a book
about how she and Joe started a new cattle breed, only the
fifth to originate in America. 

This book talk however focuses on their lives in Overland
Park and the six terms Joe served representing the city in
the state legislature. Specifically how he helped create 
the 911 emergency phone number, the Nation’s first comparative 
negligence act, the small claims court and sentencing rules 
for violent gun crimes.
