United Way of Central Kansas Announces New Event

United Way of Central Kansas had plans to hold a new event this year. Due to COVID-19, plans have changed, but they are still excited about this event!

In conjunction with the opening of Great Bend’s first brewery, Dry Lakes Brewery, UWCK had planned to host Beef & Brew, a meat and beer pairing event. With a catered food tasting paired with craft beer and games, it was going to be a nod to Oktoberfest and a great day of fun, food, and drinks.

Unfortunately, 2020 had other plan, so the event will not be held this event this year. In lieu of an actual event, UWCK will have t-shirts for sale and are already planning for this event in 2021!

“Every event needs sponsors, and we are incredibly fortunate that a group of Business Partners stepped up to support an event that isn’t even happening…at least not this year.  We truly miss being with our donors and friends this year.  The pandemic has allowed us different opportunities to be creative in our pledge drive and our work in community impact.” Gaila Demel, Executive Director
