I help direct the University of Iowa’s Telepsychology Training Clinic (TPTC), and we’re currently accepting new clients for completely free online counseling.

Our supervised doctoral student counselors help with anxiety, depression, grief, stress, relationship concerns, and more. Spanish-speaking counselors are also available.

For Iowa residents 18+ who aren’t currently seeing another counselor and have internet/video access.

Join the Dickinson County Democrats for the next NO KINGS event as we come together, get energized, and help our community prepare for the 2026 midterm election.

Saturday, October 17 | 11 a.m.–Noon
Dickinson County Courthouse

Bring your VOTE NOW, BLUE WAVE, pro-democracy, or other peaceful rally signs and join us for an hour of community and civic engagement.

We’ll have Dickinson County Democrats apparel available, along with a limited number of NO KINGS T-shirts. We’ll also be helping eligible Iowans register to vote and check that their voter information is current. Iowa’s voter pre-registration deadline for the November 3 general election is Monday, October 19, so this is a great opportunity to get ready before Election Day.

The 2026 midterm elections take place this November, with all U.S. House seats and approximately one-third of U.S. Senate seats on the ballot nationwide.

Make a sign. Bring a friend. Get registered. Get involved. We’ll see you at NO KINGS!

As a kid, my great uncle owned property on brown's bay...what is now called givens ave. Anyway, me and my parents would vacation in okoboji every summer (80's/early 90's). I just saw that the store next to the bridge is all torn down. What happened?

Anyone wonder if there’s ties to Epstein who live here seasonally? I’ve always had a weird vibe from people especially being in a position where I am in random homes every week for my job

Looking for siding contractors in the area. Need to get quotes on some windows and vinyl siding before the snow flies.

Jon and company are once again putting the "historic" in HAPI, Inc by selling off the kiddie coaster yet another historic ride instead of rebuilding it. The kiddie coaster joins a long, long list of historic rides that are no longer in Arnold's Park. Bug House, Mirror Maze, Swing Ride, Crazy Mouse Coaster, The RoundUp, The Roll-O-Plane (WW2 fighter trainer in actuality, one of a few left. usedrides.com over the last 4 years has sold several project ones, and it would've been in the park's best interest to buy one for parts to keep theirs running in top shape.)

I'm positive they'll buy some piece of crap from ADM that's trailer-mounted and literally not worth its weight in scrap and continue Arnold's Park's slide into becoming the next family fun park that won't survive. They already lost a good bit of cash per their latest 1099 filing. Hopefully, Michael Bennett and the rest of the board start perking up before all this history is gone from AP.

Hello! Heading to the lake with out of town guests, looking for a boat & captain rental. The big marinas are 30% more than rentals in Austin. Would love to pay cash direct to anyone interested. Will have 6 adults, looking to be out on the water for 6 hours.

Hi there - like title says; I am really really hoping to bring my aging mother to Okoboji next summer. She vacationed there throughout childhood and we’d like to bring her back.

However, a wheelchair accessible home with roll in shower is medically necessary, and I cannot find any accessible vacation rental in Okoboji.

Ideally we’d love a larger house for her 3 children and 4 grandkids to all staying together.

If you have any pointers - TYIA!

My family will be staying at Bridges next weekend. We have a variety of ages....young children to elderly grandparents. Has anyone been to the luau in the past? If so, was it worth it?

I'd kill for a biscuits & gravy and eggs breakfast from them before a long days sail just one more time.

Thanks for the memories. You rock. Mike Z.

Hello! I was on the Queen Sunday the 5th. When I felt my phone slide out of my pocket, heard a thud, then a gasp from the row behind me as my phone fell into the lake!
I know that the area near and around Pillsbury point is a common diving location... so if you find a iPhone 16e with a blue case... please mssg me!
If you also know a diver who could recover my phone, please DM me their contact info!

Where are EV charging stations in Okoboji?
