History of Mitchell County Tourism
The MCCTC was established in 2003 by Resolution No. 33-03 to administer the Promotion Fund created by the transient guest tax in Mitchell County.  It is composed of ten members representing various locations in the county.  Meetings are held on the first Thursday of the month at 12:00 noon at the County Courthouse.   Meetings are open to the public.  County residents may apply to join the committee with final approval made by the County Commissioners.
Mitchell County Namesake
​Mitchell County, Kansas, the heart of the Solomon Valley (the river basin of the Solomon River), is situated in the north central part of the state.  Settled after the Civil War, the county gained official status by the State of Kansas in 1871. The county name was given in honor of Capt. William D. Mitchell, who enlisted in the Union army as a private soldier in the second Kansas cavalry. After being promoted to the rank of captain, he was killed at Monroe’s cross-roads, N. C., in 1865.
