Commuter school. Nice indoor facilities.
( no dorms, but some players do rent apartments together )
Made it to the Juco World series this year.

Johnson County has a very well respected head coach. Johnson County is located in one of the wealthiest counties in the Midwest.
The recruiting coordinator and pitching coach at Johnson County, Eric Horner, grew up in our building in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. In fact, yours truly was his pitching instructor while he was in high school. I’m sure he learned a lot more once he moved away. He also has worked for us after graduating from college and he can definitely recognize talent. Eric is a great young man, very intelligent, and extremely intense. There was no doubt that he would become a big winner as a pitcher and as a coach.
Johnson County has become a good place to develop and to advance in baseball.

We lived in Johnson Country from 1991-2003.
Kansas City is a great place to live, but you need access to a car to fully enjoy the city.
(i.e.: Walking presents no fun-time options.)
The conference (KJCCC) is baseball strong.
The campus itself is well maintained and relatively new. (25 years in its current location.)

Sounds like a great school, great program, and great baseball. Son just got an invite in the mail yesterday to attend their camp in mid-October but we had already had son signed up the same weekend at Missouri State.
Seems that this same exact thing happened last year...both schools offered camps the same weekend.
Sounds like you should go futurecatcher!!
