The River City Cook-Off is a wonderful community event for Lawrence and focuses attention on the Kaw River, one of Kansas’ greatest natural resources and source of drinking water for over 800,000 citizens. Friends of the Kaw is the only conservation organization in the state of Kansas that is dedicated to monitoring those issues that impact the Kansas River! Your donation will help us keep the Kansas Riverkeeper investigating polluters, patrolling the Kansas River and most importantly educating people about the wonderful opportunities a clean Kansas River brings to the citizens of Kansas.
