We were honored to welcome Debi Durham, Director of the Iowa Economic Development Authority (IEDA), for a tour of our district today!

Director Durham got an up-close look at the exciting growth happening here, including a visit to our office at the Carriage House, a peek at projects currently under construction, and a stop at Zacatecas Western Wear, just to name a few.

It was a fantastic opportunity to showcase the momentum building in our district and explore what’s possible as we continue to grow and invest in our community. We’re grateful for Director Durham’s time and enthusiasm for what’s happening here!

💪 Big things are coming. Stay tuned!

Sometimes leadership is the loneliest walk you’ll ever take. You’re making the hard calls, carrying the weight, showing up when it’s thankless — and nobody sees the half of it.

But keep going.
The right people will eventually notice the path you paved.

And if they don’t?
You’ll still know you didn’t quit.
