On May 28th, thirty-two adventurers hopped on the KC Streetcar from Union Station to Kemper Museum of Contemporary Art, on to the City Market, and back to Union Station for a day of exploration and laughter.

Museum guides at Kemper provided in-depth information about global modern and contemporary art while our group visited the beautiful galleries. At City Market, patrons were free to choose a place for lunch and check out the variety of vendors. The Streetcar offered views of KC to include the Power & Light district, Crossroads, Liberty Memorial, Kauffman Center, and Westport.

Everyone enjoyed the experience!

Thank You, Exchange Bank & Trust!
The Leavenworth County Council on Aging would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Exchange Bank & Trust becoming one of the first sponsors of our 2026 Meals on Wheels Benefit, A Night of Glitz & Giving!

This year is especially meaningful as we celebrate 50 years of Meals on Wheels in Leavenworth County. For five decades, this program has been delivering hope to local seniors through nutritious meals, wellness checks, and meaningful connections that help older adults remain independent in their own homes.
Join us on Saturday, August 22, 2026, at the Riverfront Community Center as we celebrate this incredible milestone with an evening of Hollywood glamour, community spirit, and fundraising to support one of our county's most impactful programs.

We are still seeking sponsors to help us continue delivering meals, independence, and hope to hundreds of Leavenworth County seniors each year. Businesses, organizations, and community partners interested in sponsoring this special event are encouraged to reach out.

Together, we can continue Delivering Hope for the next 50 years.
