Topeka, we have news! Unfortunately, we've had to make the decision to postpone the 2026 Kaw River Adventure, originally slated for June 6th. Our friends at Compass Point home of Dirty Girl Adventures have been monitoring river conditions this week, and recent rain has brought the river flow to a dangerous rate. The Kaw is expected to be at a flow rate Saturday that is about 3x higher than our preferred flow rate. Therefore, it is not safe for us to move forward with the original plan.

The good news? We already have a backup date! The 2026 Kaw River Adventure is rescheduled for Saturday, July 25th. Other event details remain the same. If you registered but are unable to attend on the 25th, please email [email protected].

For any geology nerds in our midst, this image shows some of the monitoring data informing that decision. We hope you'll join us in July!

"The idea behind Topeka United is to bring people together [across differences] - whether it's a different age, different race, different gender, whatever - and just get to know each other in an environment where you can't help but bond." That's what our 2026 Kaw River Adventure is all about!

TU's Erica Garcia Babb, joined WIBW Melissa Brunner on the red couch this week to share more about our annual river adventure coming up Saturday, June 6. No kayak experience needed. We'll be guided by the amazing women of Compass Point home of Dirty Girl Adventures, and you don't want to miss it!

The Kaw River Adventure with Topeka United & Compass Point is Saturday, June 6. Checkin is at the Lecompton Rising Sun River Access.
