Cruise Calhoun Iowa

It's almost free fishing weekend! There are lots of great places to fish in Calhoun County.

Did you know that June 7-9th is FREE FISHING WEEKEND in Iowa?

In honor of this awesome weekend, Calhoun County Conservation will be bringing fishing poles to Roos Pond from 8AM-11AM on Saturday June 8th to give everyone an opportunity to get a line in the water!

Poles will have a hook and bobber but each angler will need to bring their own bait!

All ages are welcome! Fishing poles are limited so they will be provided on a first come, first served basis!

We hope to see you there!

Here's a unique opportunity, coming soon to the Manson Public Library!

We have an exciting opportunity the first Thursday in June!

It is a free program to provide information on financial power of attorney, health care power of attorney, living wills, and the Final Disposition Act. There will be a question and answer session at the end of the presentation. Noelle Murray is a lawyer with a practice in Pocahontas, IA, so she understands the needs of a community similar to ours.

This is information that is helpful to all, so don't miss this wonderful opportunity!
