RAGBRAI Updates

We are excited to announce that Estherville will be an overnight host community for RAGBRAI on Monday, July 21st! This is a fantastic opportunity for us to showcase our community spirit, and we need your help to make it a success.

We are seeking volunteers to assist in various capacities during the event on Monday, setup before and teardown on Tuesday. Your involvement is crucial to ensure the smooth running of this event and to highlight how welcoming Estherville is. Signing up to volunteer is easy with our Google Doc, which you can access here.

Additionally, we are seeking community members willing to host riders. Hosting can range from offering yard space for tents to allowing campers access to bathroom facilities or even providing indoor accommodations. Every bit of hospitality is appreciated, and you can sign up here.

For businesses, we are accepting applications for both food and non-food vendors for July 21st. Emmet County businesses and organizations will benefit from a significant discount on vending fees. Please note that anyone selling items outside of their regular business offerings must register. Official vendors will be listed on our event maps. Apply to become a vendor here.
