Mission, KS

People come to Mission from all directions, to work and shop, see their doctors, dentists, lawyers and other professionals, and enjoy "big city services" in a friendly, small-town atmosphere. You'd expect to travel a hundred miles into rural Kansas to find a place like Mission, but it's only minutes away from all the excitement of Kansas City, Missouri and Kansas City, Kansas, and enjoys the safe and friendly residential atmosphere of Johnson County, Kansas

THINGS TO DO

Be active with the family at one of Mission’s staple community gathering places, the Sylvester Powell Community Center. There you can workout in their fully stocked fitness center, play basketball or racquetball, or take a swim in their indoor or outdoor facilities. There’s something for everyone in the family! Mission is one of the few truly “walkable” cities in the metro area.

PLACES TO EAT

For a small city, Mission is packed with great places to eat…and drink. Walk the shops up and down Johnson Drive, and you won’t walk far before running into one of Mission’s popular restaurants. Stop in to The Bar to grab a drink, and watch your favorite sports team….or walk down to The Peanut for some of the best wings you’ve ever had! If you’re on a time crunch, stop in to Longboards, or stay a while at Mission’s very own Italian Delight! Whatever you do, don’t leave the city before grabbing some famous Kansas City BBQ at either Johnny’s or RJ’s! No matter what you’re in the mood for, Mission has what you need.
