    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.

    ANNUAL REPORT 2019 What makes a place thrive? What factors boost a community’s economy and quality of life? The answers to these questions often involve a community’s sense of identity and place — the unique characteristics, heritage and creativity that make each dot on the map different from the one down the road. The Iowa Department of Cultural Affairs helps Iowans build culturally vibrant communities in every corner of the state — cities and small towns full of arts and creativity, history, film and culture where people want to work, raise a family and really live. Chris Kramer Indeed, Iowa’s unmatched quality of life gives our state a competitive edge. Director But we can always do more. Iowa Department Throughout this report, you’ll find examples of innovative Iowans who have tapped into of Cultural Affairs the department’s extraordinary resources, training and support to transform their big ideas into reality. You’ll find Iowans who have used the department’s grants, workshops, research centers and more as catalysts for positive and sustainable change in each of Iowa’s 99 counties. You’ll also find an array of educational opportunities for Iowans of all ages. A broad-based education in history, culture and the arts challenges students to think both creatively and critically and prepares them to become entrepreneurs, teachers, writers, lawyers and more — and to adapt to the ever-changing global environment. After graduation, opportunities for professional development cultivate Iowa’s next generation of leaders. Here at the department, we’re proud to help Iowans understand where we came from and to broaden the possibilities for where we’re going next.
