Welcome to Minburn
Welcome to the website that's all about Minburn: A Small Town with a Big Heart, brought to you by the Minburn Community Betterment Group.
The 4th of July celebrations for 2013 are in the books! We had record crowd for all the festivities. Thanks to Nicole Connick and the rest of the 4th of July Committee for all their hard work!! Remember, the first year is always the hardest! The winners of the parade will be posted soon.
RAGBRAI will be passing through our town on Tuesday, July 23. The City will be serving breakfast to the riders starting at 5:30. If you are able to come help, please let one of the Committee Chairs know. See our RAGBRAI page for more information.
The next Meet Me in Minburn concert is Sept 7. Chad Elliot will be playing for us again and the Minburn Fire Department will be serving the meal. Hope to see you there!
Minburn is now in the loop! The Raccoon River Bike Trail loop that is. The 'North Loop' is now complete. Don't forget - the trail portion in town is open to all. You need a permit to ride/walk the portion out of the City limits.
The Raccoon River Bike Trail new 33-mile 'North Loop' will connect our community, along with Dallas Center, Perry, Dawson and Jamaica with the existing 56 miles of the RRVT, winding from Jefferson through Panora, to Adel, Waukee and Clive.
The railroad depot restoration and trail head project is very close to getting started. We are one "notice to proceed" away from beginning!
Minburn is on Highway 169, near the western edge of Dallas County. You'll find a grain elevator, church, two veterinarians, library and bank, with a wonderful nature preserve just west on F31. You can get a free cup of coffee at the bank, Heartland Coop, or at the library.
All the best,
Your friends at MCBG
