EPIC Facebook Group Meetup Champions Kansas City Small Biz

We like these guys because of their plucky spirit and dedication. 

The group is mostly South Side orientated but still worth a peek. 

There are lots of FB groups that merit attention . . .

There are no less than 3 Waldo groups with 20K members.

A KC history group has about 50K people contributing fun stuff.

There aren't any really secrets on the KC Secrets group but about 100K people still regularly tune in . . . 

What we like about this collection of cantankerous social media denizens is that they're taking some of their complaints to the real world . . . Here's a bit more description and a nice write-up . . . 

"It’s a Facebook group, which means anyone can post. That can be a mixed bag. On its worst days, The Real Kansas City can be conspiratorial, bitter and rife with misinformation. People blame the mayor for a police department he doesn’t control, City Hall for county property assessments, or homelessness on local officials who are confronting a national problem with limited resources. Many members seem determined to absolve the police of failures that obviously belong to the police.

"On its good days, though, the page is illuminating . . . Business owners post security camera footage of repeat thefts. Residents document illegal dumping, encampments and broken infrastructure that linger for months. They vent about valid complaints: inconsistent code enforcement, a city bureaucracy that often feels indifferent and the absence of a permanent municipal jail."
