We're very excited and pleased to announce Mitchell County Tourism has been granted money to implement the Driftscape app, a self-guided tour app for attractions in Mitchell County! It has many different features that we believe will help make it easier for travelers to find what they are looking for in in the county.
Thank you to our summer intern, Kyan Offutt, for researching and writing the grant! This will be a huge asset to our traveler destinations in Mitchell County!
Thank you, Solomon Valley Community Foundation!

During its fall grant cycle, the Solomon Valley Community Foundation awarded over $39,000 in grants to 14 projects throughout Mitchell County. The following organizations received funding:

A recent geocacher said of the Waconda Springs, "a fun and historical area. I learned a lot!"

We'd love for you to see our Mitchell County GeoTrail! Find 10 of the 12 caches, stamp your card, and mail it or bring it into our office to win a prize!

It's a great way to get out and explore our area-and we bet you may see something new!
