  • Prairie Meadows
    SPRING 2013 PRAIRIE MEADOWS MAKING A DIFFERENCE DEAR FRIENDS, Prairie Meadows began operations in 1989 and, over the course of nearly 25 years, one common thread has remained consistent – that Prairie Meadows be a catalyst for jobs, economic development, agriculture and tourism. That has remained our goal ever since and has allowed us to provide our state and local community with more than $1.2 billion in taxes and community betterment funding. We are an excellent example of how a public/private partnership can benefit our local community, and we take great pride in being a non-profit organization that can help make a difference in the lives of Iowans. Prairie Meadows is the result of a complete community effort, thanks to the commitment of so many people – volunteers, business leaders, elected officials, and hundreds of others who have been instrumental in the development and continued success of one of the great public/private business experiments in the entertainment industry.
