As we are able to do more live post-COVID road trips for Local Talk, hosts Gina McAndrews, Paul Wierson and Susan Franzen went back through the KHOI archives to pick our favorite trips from past years. We visited with Lyn Wilkinson owner of Lake Robbins Ballroom, an amazing dance hall in the middle of a corn field. Following up on our recent story about Kate Shelley Park, Joe Reuter, owner of much of the former Kate Shelley farm, took us Walking in the Footsteps of Kate Shelley. With the restaurant at Nyland Corner opening again, we learned its history from former owner Sandra Huemann-Kelley.. We heard Kay Munson's reminiscences of the 1930s attraction of the artesian spring filled Lake Comar. And finally Keri Rojas told us how the whole town of Webster City joined together to restore their historic Webster Theater to bring life back to Main Street after a major industry pulled out of town.
