Hanford Insider: Kings Players, the June Primary Election, Community News, & Sports

Send me a text and give me feedback on this episode!Graduation week doesn’t just sneak up on Hanford, it hits all at once, and we want you walking in prepared. We start with the practical stuff that saves you time and stress: the new clear bag policy at Neighbor Bowl, the biggest graduation nights that will impact traffic near Hanford High School, and a quick note on the honor walk that brings high school grads back through their old elementary campuses.Then we shift to something lighter and genuinely local: a conversation with Hugh Neely, director at The Kings Players, about their new comedy I Shot Jennifer Lopez. Hugh shares how the show connects back to Hanford through playwright Cricket Daniel, why the story works so well on stage, and how the theater is adding more matinee options plus a Thursday performance to make it easier for busy families to attend. If you love live theater in Kings County, this is a great behind-the-scenes listen.We also get you plugged into what’s happening around town, from Memorial Day tributes to museum hours, family events, a Pops concert, and the Carnegie Car Show weekend. After that, Kings County Register of Voters Lupe Via joins us with a clear, detailed guide to the June 2 California State Primary: vote centers, ballot drop boxes, election security upgrades, where results will be posted on election night, and the most important last-minute ballot advice if you’re cutting it close on timing and postmarks.Subscribe for weekly Hanford news and community updates, share this with a neighbor, and leave a quick review to help more locals find the show.You can find the Hanford Insider at www.hanfordinsider.com and on social media at @hanfordinsiderThank you for supporting the show!
