Hosted a large archery event & booked one of the cabins. I’ve got to say that Scott & the KDWP team at Glen Elder are top notch! So helpful and accommodating. We wanted to host this event & involve youth & they didn’t hesitate at all. We are very fortunate to have such awesome state parks in Kansas!
