The Marshalltown Area Chamber of Commerce gave a presentation last night at the Marshalltown City Council Meeting.  Dylan Does, Tourism Director, was talking about dollars being spent in the county from individuals who do not live in our county.  Marshall County is one of the top counties in the state bringing in outside money.

Based off of those numbers, Marshall County is truly a destination county in Iowa.  Does believes that tourism in Iowa is about being unique and telling a story.

Does feels that there is tons of opportunity for Marshalltown and Marshall County to continue to bring in fun events.  He mentions the 3 different Esports State Showdowns that came to Marshalltown this school year.  Those will continue to grow as the popularity of Esports grows.
