Guest guest Posted June 19, 2008 Report Share Posted June 19, 2008 In spite of the recent devastating floods throughout the Midwest, the Iowa program is still scheduled to occur as originally planned. The site for the program, the Marriott Convention Center, was completely surrounded by water, but only the entry carpet got wet, so we will still be at the same hotel. The rivers have crested, but they have been very slow to subside and some people are still not able to return to their homes. Travel in the area is affected, as some roads are still closed. For the latest information on the roads, contact the Iowa DOT at 866 452 8510 or visit their website at www.511ia.org. Other news of the area can be had at http://www.gazetteonline.com/ and http://www.coralville.org/. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
