Marshall County commissioners plan RAGBRAI veterans outreach: setup 07:30, volunteers 08:00, outreach until 16:00
Summary
Commissioner Herschel Edwards outlined logistics for a veterans outreach area at the County Courthouse during RAGBRAI: early setup, canopy/tables/chairs, 250 water bottles already delivered, tent from 'VA Lori' and QR codes to reduce paper handouts.
Commissioner Herschel Edwards told the commission he is coordinating veterans outreach at the Marshall County Courthouse during RAGBRAI. The plan calls for setup at 7:30 a.m., volunteers to arrive around 8:00 a.m., and the outreach area to operate until 4:00 p.m. The team plans to acquire a canopy, four tables and 20 chairs; 250 water bottles have been delivered to Commissioner Bob Grimes and "VA Lori" will provide a popup tent.
Edwards said the group would investigate a vinyl sign/banner from Sign Creations and use available QR codes to eliminate paper handouts for veteran-service connections. The commission recorded the outreach logistics in the meeting minutes; no funding appropriation or contract award was made at the June 2 session.
