Favorite Things about Muscatine:

I was born and raised in Muscatine so it has a special place in my heart. I not only love our community and the people who live here but I also love the history of our community. I used to love sitting and listening to my Grandma and Grandpa Martin tell stories of how Muscatine was in their lifetime. My Mom and Dad still point out places and share stories of community activities, places, and events from their childhood. Muscatine has a rich history worth remembering and preserving for our children and grandchildren.
