During this season of gratitude, we’d like to thank you for all you do to support our work to protect and preserve the Kansas River.

  • Monitoring, responding and mediate=ing suspected pollution incidents to the Kansas River
  • Managing advocacy efforts to protect and preserve the Kansas River
  • Schedule and facilitate educational paddle trips
  • K-12 and adult educational programming
  • Promoting recreation on the river
