We're getting pretty excited for the annual 100 Block Trick-or-Treat the Street! Any costume suggestions for the Chamber team? 🤔

🎃 Trick or Treat on the 100 Block! 👻

Grab your costumes, bring your candy buckets, and join us for one of our favorite 100 Block traditions!

On Monday, October 26th, from 4–6 PM, we’re shutting down the Historic 100 Block in downtown Council Bluffs and turning it over to the ghosts, goblins, princesses, and superheroes!

🍬 Local businesses will be handing out candy.
🚧 The street will be closed to traffic.
🎃 Plenty of Halloween fun for the whole family!

This is a FREE, family-friendly event brought to you by the 100 Block Community Collective and our great downtown businesses.

Come enjoy a safe and fun evening of trick-or-treating while supporting the businesses that make the 100 Block special.

We’ll see you on the Block! 🎃

We had a great time celebrating the ribbon cutting for South Pointe Apartments yesterday!
South Pointe offers studio, one- and two-bedroom apartments, along with spacious three-bedroom townhomes, bringing modern housing options to Council Bluffs.
It was great to gather with the South Pointe team, community partners and Chamber members to celebrate this new addition to our community.

Big Brothers Big Sisters stopped by with cookies for Omaha Good Neighbor Week, and it was a sweet reminder of how connected our community really is!

At the Chamber, we believe strong communities are built through strong connections between businesses, organizations, neighbors and the people who call Council Bluffs home.

Sometimes being a good neighbor starts with something as simple as saying hello. Sometimes it looks like volunteering, mentoring or lending a hand. Sometimes it means delicious cookies. Thanks for the sweet treat, Big Brothers Big Sisters of the Midlands
