This is the second wherigo that I have created, so please let me know if you encounter any problems or have suggestions for improvements! (or if you have ideas for future wherigo cartridges!) This wherigo cartridge takes you on a brief tour of the Newbo City Market area. It takes about 15 minutes to complete and the final is not too far away!
The Newbo City Market is a dynamic public space promoting health, happiness, and well-being in the heart of the New Bohemia District near downtown Cedar Rapids. As a gathering place, business incubator, and event center, Newbo City Market services many different needs for a wide spectrum of people and organizations.
This remarkable nonprofit organization is home to unique food and retail business start-ups; farmers and artisans markets; and numerous community arts, entertainment, and educational events. There is always something new and different happening at Newbo.
More than anything, NewBo City Market is a living example of SUSTAINABILITY and RESILIENCE. Sustainability is about balancing community needs with environmental impact. NewBo City Market strives to be a model for sustainable business practices: a rain barrel waters the garden, electric vehicles are free to charge up in the parking lot, and the facility is zero-waste (even the “plastic” forks are compostable).
Today, NewBo City Market is a community hub of activity designed to enlighten, inspire, and entertain. We are a destination for local producers and consumers to gather. Most importantly, our friends, neighbors, and out-of-town visitors continue to return to live, work, and play in New Bohemia.
