Celebrating a Century of 'Country People': Iowa's Literary Legacy

The Centennial Celebration of Ruth Suckow's novel, 'Country People', will take place at the Hearst Center for the Arts in Cedar Falls, Iowa, featuring discussions by former Iowa Poet Laureate Mary Swander, a panel of Iowa farmers, and an essay presentation by an Iowa student. The event, commemorating the novel’s exploration of three generations of the German-American Kaetterhenry family in northeast Iowa from 1870 to 1920, aims to reflect on the depiction of rural life in Suckow's work and its relevance today. Attendees can purchase the Centenary Edition of the novel, participate in panels, and enjoy centennial cake. Scholarships will also be awarded to a student and a teacher for their essays on the novel.

Thousands of Iowans start their day with Good Day Cedar Falls

“Reading the newsletter has become a really positive daily habit for me. I read it while drinking my coffee and planning the day. It saves me a ton of time, but it's really enjoyable too. It's great to have the news filtered down to just a handful of critical events everyday that actually matters to me. I also like reading the community profiles. They interview people locally like teachers, politicians, and small business owners. It's hard to find this anywhere else.”

“I'm a senior citizen here in Cedar Falls, and this newsletter is like a lifeline. I don't have the attention span these days to read the paper, and Facebook is a mess. This newsletter keeps me informed, without taking the whole day from me.”

“I like how this newsletter keeps me connected with our community. It's great to have a dedicated source that focuses on what's going on locally. So many news companies are focused on huge attention-grabbing national headlines. But, besides the entertainment value, it's not really relevant to my day-to-day. Also it's great the newsletter is free.”

“I'm a parent, and it's apparent how busy that makes me. I LOVE newspapers (especially the smell), but I never have time to read it anymore. So thank god this newsletter exists, and I can read it in a few minutes. If anything is really critical or catches my eye, I can always spend more time reading into each piece of news, but it isn't usually necessary.”

“I start my day with this newsletter and it never disappoints. It keeps me informed about local school events and city news in a concise way. It's the perfect blend of brevity and depth, and I appreciate that it's free and accessible.”

“I moved away a few years ago. I use Good Day Cedar Falls to keep one foot in the town I grew up in, and my friends and family continue to live in. It keeps me connected to my hometown, and I look forward to reading it quickly every morning.”
