Friends of the Wells is working to establish a “Cultural Renaissance through Mineral Water Restoration” initiative aimed at revitalizing the historic downtown area of Excelsior Springs through the restoration of its mineral water heritage. 

Please join us in preserving our heritage by becoming a member, donating your time, or providing materials for reconstruction of selected gazebos and pagodas. Your donation will provide for restoration, educational signage, and continued maintenance.

Please consider a donation to our Special Project: Testing Soda and Lithia Wells for water quality.
