New websites showcase downtown ammenities

I wanted to take a moment to highlight two new websites, which highlight downtown ammenities.

The QC River Bandits have launched a new website promoting the team and the upcoming 2008 season. The Bandits open the season at 7 pm, April 3rd with a four-game homestand. To visit the site: click here.

The Capitol Theatre has a new website as well. The site lists upcoming performances and has some great photos of the venue. The next show is at 8 pm, April 3rd when Spoon comes to town in a concert sponsored by daytrotter.com - to visit the Captiol's site: click here.

Zoo Review

The city council will be hosting public meetings through a task force to review the FY-09 budget allocation for the Fejervary Zoo. The decision at hand concerns staffing and the animals to be exhibited at the facility. If you are interested in sharing comments please feel free to do so on this site or contact me at: ifrink@ci.davenport.ia.us or 563-508-2842.

Also, let me know if you would like to be placed on our contact list for these meetings. Thanks, Ian

Update: The first meeting is scheduled for 6 pm, Thur. 3/27, at the Parks Office (next to the IMAX and Zoo, off of Division)
