FYI, here is the rss feed of the Iowa Grove which you can put in emails or on your website but using this link. http://thegrove.americangrove.org/leaderboards/topcontent/month?feed=yes&xn_auth=no&n=20&images=yes&imageMaxSize=240

Since the other application only has 3 of the 16 questions answered (2 of them were yes/no questions), it would make sense to me to start a new application. If you would want me at the meeting, just let me know. I am glad this is starting to come together. THANK YOU for your help!!!!

At 9:10am on March 28, 2012, Shane Hickey said…: I think a site visit would be an excellent idea!! I just called the Superintendent of the schools and he also thinks it would be a great idea. His name is Alan Marshall and can be reached at 319-849-1102 x6010.
