WHAT WE DO
to protect and restore our greatest asset – the Mississippi River – and our shared RiverWay environment.
the cultural and economic activities that enhance and promote our community and quality of life.
Presented by River Action in partnership with Camera Corner, this contest celebrates the beauty of our region’s wildlife and river landscapes during the winter season. Photographers of all experience levels are invited to participate and share their best winter nature shots.
We are excited to share a special initiative that celebrates the enduring legacy of Dean Mathias—our very own G.O.A.T. of RAGBRAI and a pillar of generosity in the cycling community. Dean’s selfless spirit has touched countless lives, from being the first on the road with panniers full of snacks and supplies, to the last one into town ensuring every rider—especially those with the Quad Cities Bicycle Charter—was supported and safe. His commitment to helping others has become a hallmark of our club’s values. To honor Dean’s contributions, we are launching a Sculpture Garden Project—a permanent tribute that will reflect his impact and inspire future generations of cyclists. Our goal is to unveil this garden in 2026, and we need your help to make it happen. We kindly invite you to contribute to this meaningful effort.
