The City of Colwich, founded in 1886 and incorporated in June, 1887 as a third class city is located in South Central Kansas approximately five (5) miles northwest of Kansas’ largest city, Wichita. A rural-suburban community, Colwich is a place where residents can enjoy the comforts of a small town, but yet take advantage of all the amenities of metropolitan life. The Kansas Oklahoma Railroad inte

rsects Colwich with K-96 approximately two miles north, Highway 400 approximately six miles south, with US 135 and the Kansas Turnpike to the east making Colwich comfortably accessible to all major transit systems surrounding the region. Mid-Continent Airport, located south of Colwich, provides residents with air transportation offering services from several main stream industry airlines. Colwich is an oasis in South Central Kansas, combining the best of rural life with the convenience of being near all the amenities that come with big city life. Our city has parks and walking trails, a disc golf course, plenty of activities for youth and adults, community events, and most of all a safe environment for you family to live in-all while being minutes from New Market Square shopping center and Via Christi Hospital.

⭐️Be on the lookout for containers with this sign on them this weekend. Pretty special ❤️

A quick reminder that the donation containers you see around this weekend are for local families battling cancer.

Last year, the container placed near the keg at the dance disappeared. We hope it was simply taken by mistake, but we'd like to remind everyone that these containers are not personal property and should not be removed.

Every donation helps support local families in need. Thank you for helping us make a difference and for respecting these donation containers. ❤️
