A HUGE thank you to the Apgar Family and the Arts + Culture Alliance for your commitment to making Marshalltown an even better place to live, work, and play.

We are excited to see the opening of the new Apgar Family Water Plaza and the positive impact it will have on families, children, and visitors throughout our community. Projects like this help make Marshalltown a vibrant destination and create lasting memories for generations to come.

Be sure to stop out and celebrate this exciting grand opening and enjoy everything this wonderful new addition has to offer!

After a fun day at the Water Plaza, head over to Wayward Social for great food, drinks, bowling, arcade games, and family fun.

🎸 And don’t forget—Route 66 takes the stage tonight at Gutter Point! Join us for live music, great vibes, cold drinks, and the perfect way to cap off a fun day in Marshalltown.

We look forward to seeing you!
