It's May 1st, from your city to your ears, this is Kansas News Today, powered by AI. Betty Ray's ice cream just dropped its 11th spot in the Kansas City Metro, right in Liberty, and for the first time, they've crossed the Missouri. River, north of town. Northlanders can finally grab scoops like Cookie Monster or Lavender Honey without the drive south. Owner Matt Shotto made this happen after taking over the company in 2023. He grew up on a dairy farm north of Liberty and went to William Jewel College there, so opening up shop in his old stomping grounds was a long-held dream. The community has shown mad love from day one, with Shotto calling the response outstanding and exactly what they hoped for. This Liberty location fits their big push lately. They've added about eight new storefronts in three years, including fresh ones in Lee's Summon, and Lawrence this year, plus two franchises in Omaha. Adding customer vibes has paid off big time, and Betty Ray's keeps spreading that creamy

goodness across the region.
