Mayor Douma provides April update for citizens
UncategorizedWelcome to the Mayor’s Update.
The Mayor’s Update will be an attempt, on a monthly basis, to better inform Orange City’s citizens and others on the progress and activities occurring within the community. City Council decisions, retail and commercial development progress, business activities and other actions affecting the community will be included in a brief and, hopefully, informative manner.
OC21 Foundation asks for your support
UncategorizedLast year we launched a campaign to revitalize the OC21 Foundation. Since its inception in 1988, the foundation has invested nearly $400,000 in a variety of projects to enhance the quality of life in Orange City. Last year’s campaign resulted in over $20,000 of additional funds for the foundation. With this increased support, we have been able to assist with the following projects; $7,500 to the Prairie Winds Event Center, $5,000 to the new recreation ball fields at the pool park, $6,000 to the OC Betterment Fund.
We would ask that you consider joining the nearly 200 households that are supporting the Foundation through the monthly utility check-off or with an annual donation. Your investment in Orange City will continue to provide new opportunities for all of us to enjoy. Follow this link: https://orangecityiowa.com/oc21-foundation/join-the-progress/ for a pledge card you may use to respond.
Thanks again for your support of the OC21 Foundation.
