Less than five weeks remain until the return of Fake Patty’s Day, the unofficial drinking holiday celebration for Kansas State University students in Manhattan.

Riley County Police Department Captain Scott Hajek told Riley County commissioners Monday that he is “deeply involved” with planning for the day, which is scheduled for March 7.

“The patrol division and the entire department as a whole works really well with other entities in the city — Manhattan Fire Department, and (Riley County) EMS to have a response that is both fair to the people participating and fair to the people who aren’t participating in ensuring that the laws are followed that day and that people are safe, which is always the end goal for everything that day,” he said.
