Who are the Wichita Wagonmasters? Wichita Wagonmasters was formed by a group of civic-minded business executives with a single purpose: To promote and sell the good life in Wichita. Beyond supporting other organizations, the Wagonmasters put on several events throughout the year, aimed at two things. First, to help improve Wichita and make it a better place to live. Secondly, to raise funds to reinvest in our city and help those making a difference.
Making a Difference: The Wichita Wagonmasters primary objective to help those who are making an impact in our city. Through countless hours of work, the Wagonmasters have cooked and served tens of thousands of meals over the last year, for fundraisers across Wichita.
