About Us"Rural Kansas: Come and Get It" is a project of the "Explore Rural Kansas Partnership" headed by the Kansas Sampler Foundation with support from statewide organizations listed under Partners. Grant support from the Kansas Department of Commerce Travel & Tourism Division made it possible.
The project is designed to help keep rural communities viable by inviting the world to visit and "get" rural Kansas. The Explorer Tourism concept makes sense for even the smallest of towns.
For a rural community to be on this site, a representative has to take a class. Eighty communities took classes in 2009 and forty of those towns have already populated their pages. Another round of classes is now taking place (July 2010). Contact wendee@kansassampler.org for information about those classes. If you're rural, we want you on this site! The belief is that there is a particular audience that loves visiting rural communities. Referred to as Explorers, this audience loves to engage in the search, interact with locals, and make a difference. Learn more!

"This must be the finest city in NW Kansas. The prime rib at the Prairie Junction is excellent and the park is beautful!"
