FREDONIA
Where the Flag Flies High!
Commerce and Community ~ Together Create a Strong Tommorow!
Just off US400 in southeast Kansas between Wichita and Joplin.
2008 Community Theme: "Honor the Past ~ Imagine the Future"
Fredonia, Kansas is located at the rim of the scenic Flint Hills, an area rich with recreational opportunities. The river valleys, range land and wooded hills offer exceptional hunting, outdoor living and trail riding. The three reservoirs and two state lakes offer boating, fishing, water skiing and trail hiking.
Fredonians like to have fun and celebrations, and several are planned throughout each year. Gold Dust Day in late May and the annual Homecoming Festival in early October bring out the locals as well as attracting many visitors.
Fredonia has grown from its 1868 start as the seat of Wilson County into an interesting, diversified community built on a solid foundation.
A piece of history can be found in Fredonia. Many homes and businesses date back more than 100 years. A drive through the city streets can bring a glimpse of the proud homes from the past, many lovingly restored.
Quiet, friendly and welcoming -- Fredonia is a charming place with a true calming, comfortable "hometown" feel.
The Wilson County Historical Society's program "The Great Flood of 2007" is now on DVD and available at the Historical Society, 420 N 7th, Monday through Friday, from 1pm to 4pm. The DVDs are $8 plus tax.
