The Pivotal Role of Water
The Pivotal Role of Water
Unfortunately, many of us take water for granted. We turn on the tap and the water flows. Have you ever wondered where the water used in our county comes from? Or how water is funded and managed throughout the state of Kansas? Would you be surprised to learn that the Kansas state budget includes more funding for roads than for water?
Join us to learn more about the important issues related to protecting and managing this precious resource.

Dawn Buehler, Riverkeeper and Executive Director of Friends of the Kaw and Chair of the Kansas Water Authority
