While you’re making plans for the weekend, don’t forget about Ridiculous Day downtown between 9am and 2pm. Marshalltown Central Business District promotions director Elushia Fitzgerland says action will begin right away with a bags tourney that you can sign up for between nine and 9:30…but there is also a whole lot more.

OF course, there will be specials from Main Street merchants and businesses along with, yes, more. You are urged to follow Facebook and Instagram for specials.
