(KAIR)--An invited guest of the Atchison Rotary Club, Kansas State Treasurer Jake LaTurner came to Atchison Thursday.
During his time in the community, he served as the guest speaker during the day's Rotary Club meeting, as well as taking time to make stops around the city.
LaTurner was appointed to the role of State Treasurer last year, following the resignation of Ron Estes.
At the age of 30, LaTurner is cited as one of the youngest statewide officials, both in Kansas, and across the nation.
Prior to his appointment as State Treasurer, LaTurner served as Senator for the 13th District of Kansas from 2013 until 2017.
Among his stops in Atchison was KAIR 93.7 FM, where MSC News Director Brian Hagen talked to LaTurner about his visit, as well as the role his office plays in state government.
