Hawver News has been around since 1991 and we’re starting a new publication in the autumn of 2025: Hawvers’ Still Booming…insights & information for Topeka-area Baby Boomers & other Grown-Ups.

We’re building the Hawvers’ Still Booming website and we’ll let you know the link soon, but in the meantime here’s some stuff about Hawver News Company:

It’s a small news-gathering/writing/editing business in Topeka, Kansas.

It is owned by Vickie Griffith Hawver and Martin Hawver, who met and married while both worked at the Topeka Capital-Journal newspaper.

Probably the most well-known of HNC projects was Hawver’s Capitol Report, the respected, non-partisan news service reporting on Kansas government & politics. We started it on June 18, 1993, and sold it on Dec. 16, 2022, to State Affairs Inc., a new national digital news organization aiming to establish news bureaus in statehouses across the country. We worked during 2023 in the transition and since then have been “retired” — although mostly we’ve been floundering around trying to figure out how we want to write the next chapter of our lives.

Turns out, that will be producing Hawvers’ Still Booming. Stay tuned for how you can enjoy and hopefully benefit from it but in the meantime, if you care to see some background on us, go to:
