​March in Pott. County is a busy one!  The month kicks off with Family Game Night at Impact Hill in Oakland on Friday night from 6:30 to 8:30.  It’s $2 admission and fun for the whole family! 

If you’re looking for a little more of the adult variety –  you can do Karaoke with Fasttrax at The Back Forty in Donia from 9pm to midnight!

Saturday brings the Bridal Expo at The Palace Event Center right outside Treynor.  And it’s FREE!  What a great opportunity!

The Underwood Optimists are also hosting a Boys Basketball Tournament.  Catch some good games all day!  Then head to St. Patrick’s in Neola for the Reed Petersen Benefit Dinner.  It starts at 4. No need to cook!

Fill your stomachs and then dance the night away at The Back 40 with Down and Desperate!  They’ll be playing from 8 to 11pm.

Finally, don’t forget if you’re tired from the weekend that you can head to the American Legion Fish Fry Monday night in Treynor from 5:30 to 7 and make it a No Bake Monday!

​We could not, would not miss this chance
To state our opinions and claim our stance -


You might find us a bit over-zealous and shouty
When we proclaim Pottawattamie to be the best county!

But we hope you’ll come to stay
To live, work, visit, or play!


Home to the Loess Hills as far as the eye can see
Found only in China and Pottawattamie!
 
What can you do?  What can you see?
1 million things if you hang with me!


There’ll be burgers and fries at the famous Dew Drop
And we’ll have to have our daily Casey’s fountain pop!

We’ll swing through Roberts Bakery for something delish
Then hit the water trails and the old West Nish!

We’ve got plenty of things to entertain!
Carson Rodeo and Avoca’s musical garden on Main, 
We’ll take time for the Stone Arch Trail,
And we’ll see what the Byways have to unveil!
 
We’ve got so much for you to do!
Garcia’s in Underwood is completely new, 
Then there’s HooDoo Days and The Painted Camel, too!

With antiques in Walnut you’ll be dying to see
Followed up by Breezy Hills and Prairie Crossing Wineries!

Glimpse the world’s tallest corn stalk
And don't miss Oakland’s Freedom Rock!
See Hitchcock, Arrowhead, and Botna Bend
Then catch a show at The Phoenix or Dreamland to transcend!
Or see the Mormon Trail & the beloved Grist Mill
Before you grab supper at The Bar’N and Grill!

Then take your selfie at the spider car
And swing through for drinks at Tailgators Bar!

More selfies at the Treynor helicopter display
But then you better get on your merry way - 
For the coolest town triangle located in Minden
It's a stop that they say is always a given.

So many places.  So little time.
But every town has their little “goldmines.”


Explore what we’ve got. Enjoy the view.
I promise you this - We’ll be waiting for you!
