Does anyone know where exactly in Glenwood the Expo and camping is going to be? I’m looking to get coordinates to set up a geocaching event.

I don’t know about 2016, but in 2011 I believe we camped at the High School. The Expo was in a parking lot across a walk bridge over a small creek. May have been at the Middle School? I do remember a Stealth Bomber flying overhead and putting on a cool show.
How about the dip site? Anyone know where that will be? It seems like it was quite a ways away last time we were there.
Sparkles, last time the dip site was a kiddie pool. The river was too dangerous and authorities wouldn’t let anyone near it if I remember correctly.
Although the expo was at the Glenwood Community High School parking lot five years ago, it sounds like it will be in the Glenwood downtown square this year (based on the 5/13/16 RAGBRAI blog post written by Scott Garner). It is likely that the main camp will be at the high school as the route departs up the 245th Street hill (an immediate wake-up call for anyone who thinks Iowa is flat).
Go the top of the web site and click THE RIDE then click HOST COMMUNITIES.
The information will be updated as each of the community’s committees complete their work. Barring the unforeseen, flood, tornado, fire or windstorm all arrangements should be complete by the end of the first week in July
RIDE RIGHT
the way out takes us away from the river, if you want to dip in the river better find a place Saturday.
