History: Kansas Wildscape Foundation is a private, nonprofit organization dedicated to getting people outdoors in Kansas. Kansas Wildscape started the O.K. Kids Program.

Outdoor Kansas for Kids (O.K. Kids) is a program geared toward getting kids outdoors and having fun. The first year of the program was 2001, and was limited to a single day of activities at every Kansas State Park. Each site decides the

activities for the program. Events are FREE to all youth participants.

Kansas Wildscape has added a new program called Wildlifer Challenge. The program encourages parents and children to be outdoors by using an interactive, web-based program. This program challenges the children to accomplish 15 outdoor “WildLifer” challenges. To find out more information about the programs Kansas Wildscape offers go to http://www.kansaswildscape.org/.
