Last update: 9 hours ago

High School Arts Spotlight: Sheldon native Craig Ihnen was inducted into the National High School Hall of Fame in the Fine Arts category, adding to a long record of community arts leadership that began as a speech and drama teacher and grew into major statewide influence. Livability Rankings: WalletHub put Wisconsin and Minnesota in the top 10 for livability, with Wisconsin ranking No. 3 for education, safety, and healthcare coverage—an easy read for Iowans comparing regional quality-of-life trends. Capitol Religious Freedom Fight: The Satanic Temple sued Iowa after repeated denials to host holiday events in the Iowa Capitol rotunda, arguing the state allowed some religious displays while blocking theirs. Iowa Politics Ahead of November: Iowa Democrats are spotlighting the governor’s race and the open U.S. Senate seat, framing the contests as key paths to shifting power. NASCAR & Local Sports Culture: Ty Gibbs will drive an M&M’s-themed car at Bristol as a Kyle Busch tribute, while Richmond’s weekend schedule and Iowa’s racing momentum keep fans locked in. State Fair History: The Iowa State Fair Historical Walking Tour was postponed due to severe weather, with a rescheduled 3 p.m. start.
