Investigate Midwest hosted its annual Sunset on the Farm on Sept. 22 at the Walker Homestead in Iowa City, marking the first day of fall with a wonderful evening.

A big thank you to the University of Iowa event management class, including Heather Spangler and Payton Spindler, for their coordination, and to our event sponsors: the Cedar Rapids Gazette, Iowa Freedom of Information Council, Alan Swanson & Blank McCue Real Estate, and Hills Bank.

Next up: Join us for our Live Storytelling Night on Thursday, Nov. 7. This year’s theme is “Lost and Found: What I found when something was lost.” Stay tuned for more details!
