Amana site to get road grant for permanent exhibition

A $260000 RISE grant from the Iowa DOT Commission funds half of a $515000 road project enabling the Amana Society to build a 52 acre permanent exhibition area at the intersection of highways 220 and 181. The project aims to host three major events over ten years and attract large conventions, boosting regional tourism and creating full time jobs. The plan includes a Welcome Center and will support the Society's $25 million annual sales.
