The geographic area of the Southwind Group is by far the largest, from Emporia in eastern Kansas and from Salina to Hays in western Kansas, south to the Oklahoma border. The much-beleaguered Arkansas River (a/k/a The Ark River) runs through Wichita, the largest city in Kansas and home to Wichita State University. Southwind leaders are focused primarily on keeping Wichita sustainable by improving tree canopy and reducing single use plastics. The boundaries of the Southwind Group, like all of Kansas, encompass part of the ancestral lands of the Osage Nation, including the southern part of the Flint Hills.
