Lied Public Library launches Iowa Adventure Pass Program, expanding access to museums, attractions, and family fun
BY LIZ SKILLERN lizskillern2@gmail.com
The Lied Public Library is thrilled to announce the launch of the Iowa Adventure Pass program, beginning Nov. 23 This new initiative gives library cardholders free or discounted admission to many of Iowa’s and the region’s most popular attractions. The program is made possible through generous support from the Friends of the Library, a volunteer organization dedicated to strengthening and enriching local library services.
The program opens the door to museums, zoos, science centers, historical sites, entertainment venues, and more. Page County residents with a valid Lied Public Library card, excluding those who live within Essex and Shenandoah city limits, may reserve passes online and enjoy one-time admission for themselves or their families, depending on the venue.
Library Director Andrew Hoppmann said bringing the
Iowa Adventure Pass program to Clarinda has been years in the making. “This is something we have been wanting to do for a number of years,” Hoppmann explained. “We wanted to make sure we were able to offer more local venues, as not everyone can drive out of town. This aligns with our mission because it makes these destinations accessible by making them affordable—and expands on our growing list of things you can ‘check out’ or borrow from the library. You can not just borrow books, but experiences!”
The Iowa Adventure Pass supports the library’s ongoing goal to promote lifelong learning and community engagement, both inside and beyond its physical walls. “This program is a wonderful extension of our mission to provide accessible, innovative, and inclusive library services that meet the evolving needs of our community and do so outside of the walls of the library,” Hoppmann said. “Thanks to the support of the Friends of the
Library, we are the first library in Southwest Iowa to offer the Iowa Adventure Pass.”
A program designed to remove barriers
Hoppmann emphasized the program’s potential impact on families and individuals who may not otherwise have the opportunity to visit these attractions. “This will provide access to those individuals or families who might otherwise not be able to afford it,” he said. “It also offers another reason for ‘non-traditional’ library users to get a library card and use their library.”
The Friends of the Library played a crucial role in funding and launching the program. Hoppmann noted that special projects like this often rely on outside supporters. “Groups like our Friends of the Library and Library Foundation are key to allowing the library to offer special services and programming—like the Adventure Passes—that we simply don’t have in our regular
budget,” he said. “We wouldn’t be able to offer nearly the same level of services without their support.”
Attractions available
Currently, the Lied Public Library is offering passes to 12 different venues across the region and the state. Some of the available experiences include:
• Admission to the Glenn Miller Museum
• A round of minigolf for four at Sports Plex & Pizzeria in Shenandoah
• Tickets to Southwest Iowa Theatre Group productions
• A movie pass to The Hangar in Maryville
• Family passes to the Omaha Children’s Museum and Des Moines Children’s Museum
Patrons can browse available passes, check availability, and reserve a selected date through the library website. Each pass is good for one-time use and may include multiple guests,
depending on the venue. Supplies are limited, so early reservations are recommended.
Growth already underway
Although the program is brand new, the library is already planning for expansion. “We are already in talks with additional venues to add and hope to continue growing the program,” Hoppmann said. “If a location is interested in joining, we ask that they reach out to the library. We are open to any feedback from both venues and library patrons. We want to make it a simple and successful program.”
Getting started
Residents interested in the Iowa Adventure Pass can stop by the Lied Public Library to sign up for a library card or explore the online reservation system at the library’s website. “This program gives our community new opportunities to learn, explore, and experience Iowa together,” Hoppmann said. “We’re excited to see families enjoy it.”

CELEBRATING THREE DECADES
Emily LaRock, owner Brad Sorensen, Kristin Acosta and Erica Matya celebrate Sorensen Auto Plaza’s 30 years of business in Shenandoah during a SCIA Coffee on Nov. 19.
Sorensen Auto marks 30 years in Shenandoah
BY LIZ SKILLERN lizskillern2@gmail.com
Community members, customers, and Shenandoah Chamber and Industry Association (SCIA) representatives gathered Friday morning at Sorensen Auto Plaza to celebrate a major milestone — 30 years of business in Shenandoah.
The celebration took place during an open house and Chamber Coffee at the dealership, located at 1100 W. Sheridan Ave.
The event honored the family-owned business that was originally founded in 1995 and has remained family-owned and familyrun ever since.
SCIA Marketing Director Michelle Morelock expressed gratitude for Sorensen Auto’s decades of service and its deep roots in the community. “We’re so grateful for their dedication to our community and for choosing Shenandoah as their home,” Morelock said.
As part of the celebration, owners Brad and Tami Sorensen reflected on the dealership’s history, its values, and the moments that have defined its success through three generations.
When asked about the standout moments from three decades in business, Sorensen pointed to the transitions that shaped the company’s legacy. He highlighted watching his father, the company’s founder, retire and pass the leadership to him, and later, experiencing the same moment as he passed the business
to the next generation.
“Mentoring Kristin Acosta and watching her grow into the highly qualified administrator she has now become has been very gratifying,” Sorensen said.
“I can equally appreciate how my father mentored me in the same way.”
Sorensen credits Shenandoah’s character and close-knit community for shaping the way the business operates. After spending time in California
operated a wide variety of businesses - each a response to what local residents needed at the time.
“In a town as small as ours, repeat business is the only business there is,” he said. “We must do everything in our power to put our customers' needs first, and treat them with honesty, decency, and appreciation.”
as a young adult, he felt drawn back to the values of his hometown. “In a town as small as ours, repeat business is the only business there is,” he said.
“We must do everything in our power to put our customers' needs first, and treat them with honesty, decency, and appreciation.”
Returning to Shenandoah in 1981, Sorensen said the move reaffirmed his belief in small-town relationships and the loyalty that comes from genuine service.
Sorensen Auto Plaza’s longevity, Sorensen explained, has been shaped by flexibility, creativity, and a willingness to adapt to the community’s needs.
Over the past six decades, the Sorensen family has
From a 1962 APCO gas station to carwashes, tire dealerships, agricultural service trucks, repair shops, a convenience store, selfstorage units, a laundromat, and now a used-car dealership with a related finance company, the Sorensens have continually evolved. “Our family business has constantly innovated, changed, and metamorphosed with the needs of our community,” Sorensen said.
Brad Sorensen Sorensen Auto Plaza Owner
As Sorensen Auto Plaza celebrates its 30th anniversary as a dealership and more than 60 years of Sorensen family enterprises in Shenandoah, the family expressed deep appreciation to customers, employees, and the community as a whole. “Shenandoah has been very good to our family,” Sorensen said. “We are thankful for each and every one of our customers and the scores of employees whose patronage and trust have permitted our business to survive for 60+ years and three generations.”

BY LIZ SKILLERN lizskillern2@gmail.com
I’ve done a lot of hard things in my life, but nothing quite prepared me for walking 60 miles in San Diego with nearly 1,900 people — all wearing pink and all believing passionately in one thing: that someday breast cancer will be a thing of the past.
I signed up for the Susan G. Komen 3-Day because I wanted to honor my family and friends — my sister Steph and cousin Cindy, both survivors; close friends who have survived; and those who have lost their battle. What I didn’t expect was how much the walk would teach me about strength, humor, kindness, and the power of showing up — even when the weather does everything in its power to knock you over. And trust me… it tried.
Day 1:
The Confidence Phase (Feet dry. Spirits high.)
The first morning felt like a pink-powered pep rally, aptly called the Pink Bubble. Opening ceremonies were emotional and beautiful, the kind of moments that fill your heart with purpose.
My twin sister Annette and I walked with our cousin Angie and her partner, Tim — the seasoned pros. When we reached Del Mar Village, it felt like the entire town had come out to cheer us on. Local shop owners, families with signs, and cheerleaders lined the
streets with music, snacks, and a bright pink balloon arch that practically shouted, “You’ve got this!”
And honestly, we needed the boost… because right after all that love and encouragement came the 1.2-mile uphill climb near Torrey Pines. Let me tell you: that hill has absolutely no business being that long or that uphill. But somehow — with cheers still ringing in our ears, the ocean beside us, and our support crew waiting somewhere up ahead — we climbed it. One step, one laugh, one “whose idea was this?” at a time.
Our support crew (Steph, Cindy, and Joe) met us at lunch like a pit crew, offering chairs, snacks, fresh socks, water refills, and blister triage. The day was moving along wonderfully. The sun was shining, our socks were dry, and someone handed me a sticker that said, “If you think this is hard, imagine chemotherapy.” That one stuck with me.
After 20 miles, I felt tired but proud. And incredibly naive.
Because then came Day 2.
Day 2: The Storm
That Tried To Break Us (But couldn’t.)
When I tell you that Saturday was wet, I don’t mean “a light sprinkle.” The weather event was classified as a Category 3 atmospheric river. To me, it meant pushing forward in winds that slapped us with rain like it had a personal grudge. At mile 3, the gusts on the bridge over Sail Bay were so strong we joked that if they got any worse, we’d be blown straight to the finish line — which honestly would’ve been
Susan G. Komen
didn’t want to stop, but safety came first. Our support crew showed up like superheroes. They picked us up and dropped us off at mile 9.7 so we could continue. They brought extra ponchos, warm snacks, hugs, and in my case, an actual raincoat off my sister Steph’s back. She had every reason to keep it — she’s a survivor, after all — but instead she gave it to me without hesitation. It was a gesture that summed up the entire weekend: love, sacrifice, and taking care of each other through the storm.
By early afternoon, the storm intensified. Ponchos
blew backward. Raincoats soaked through. Shoes filled with water. By the time we reached Ocean Beach, we were wading through ankledeep water. And still — we laughed. Partly because it was over-the-top ridiculous.
Partly because if we didn’t laugh, we might have cried all the way back to Iowa. By mid-afternoon, the walk was cut short and camp was evacuated due to additional flooding and dangerous winds. Some walkers were relocated to hotels or the YMCA. Honor ceremonies were cancelled. And yet, even soaked and shivering, the Pink Bubble stayed strong. I didn’t hear a single complaint.
Day 3: Sunshine, Dolphins & the Double Rainbow of all Double Rainbows
By Day 3, you’d think we’d wake up exhausted or defeated. But no. We woke up determined to see it through, although slightly pickled from being waterlogged the day before.
The sun came out like it was apologizing. Supporters lined the Mission Beach Boardwalk with cheers, music, and snacks. SeaWorld employees handed out snacks and posed for dolphin photos with us like we were VIPs.
The Memorial Mile, moved because of the storm, was quiet and emotional. I thought about my family, my friends, and all the names written on walkers’
shirts. It was impossible not to feel both heartbroken and hopeful at the same time.
A short squall hit Crown Point Shores, drenching the early finishers and closing ceremony setup. But as walkers approached the final stretch, a double rainbow arched over Mission Bay, a beautiful reminder that storms don’t last forever.
Our foursome crossed the finish line hand in hand. Sixty miles (or as close to 60 as the weather allowed), tired feet, sore muscles, and hearts completely full.
The Closing Ceremony, known as the Finish Line Festival, is the true finale of the 3-Day. Walkers are greeted with love and gratitude as everyone celebrates the miles behind them. The shoe-raising
tribute to honor survivors who walked was especially powerful. It was a moment that really hit me in the heart. There were not many dry eyes among the walkers, family, and friends standing shoulder to shoulder, forming a long tunnel of honor and hope as the survivors walked through.
Together, more than 1,900 walkers and 330 crew members raised an incredible $6.5 million in the fight against breast cancer.
What the 3-Day Gave Me It gave me…
• A deeper appreciation for survivors — especially the ones in my own family.
• A reminder that laughter is sometimes the only umbrella you’ve got.
• Proof that kindness from strangers can change you.
• The knowledge that even in the worst storms, people show up.
• And maybe most importantly: blisters are optional, but showing up with heart is not.
And yes — before I even unpacked my soggy shoes, I signed up for next year. Because once you’ve been part of the Pink Bubble — once you’ve walked through storms and rainbows with people who would literally give you the coat off their back — you realize something: This isn’t a walk. It’s a belief. It’s a community. And the people walking beside me will make every single mile worth it.
Akin Building Center embraces new ownership, community-focused future
MEDIA RELEASE
Corning, IA —
November 14, 2025 — Akin Building Center is pleased to announce a significant shift in ownership along with a fresh, communityfocused direction. With the exit of Alan Fishbein from the ownership group, longtime Akin leader Adam Bock — who has served as Executive Vice President and has been an integral part of the company for almost a decade — will assume the Chief Executive Officer role.
Adam is a CPA with a strong background in asset management, particularly private equity, and is a seasoned professional with extensive commercial real estate experience in New York.
He is also a dedicated family man and father of two grown children.
While he previously worked primarily behind the scenes, Adam is now stepping forward to ensure Akin embraces a new and positive culture focusing on the communities within the four-store footprint of Atlantic, Creston, Corning and Clarinda. Adam understands the importance of earning the trust of our customers and local communities while also fostering a more vibrant workplace culture.
“We’re introducing new opportunities for staff to volunteer and are focused on making Akin a place where our team feels valued and excited to come to work.”
Joining Adam in this new chapter are Ryan & Michele Draper, from the Creston area who have also become part-owners of the company. Ryan started with Akin in 2019 before becoming general manager in June
2023 and will now also take on the role of Executive Vice President handling the day-to-day operations across all locations.
He is a Creston native and an on-the-ground presence, bringing with him 20-plus years of residential construction expertise. Michele has spent the past 23 years in the insurance industry serving many area residents and farmers at the agency level.
She brings her passion for relationship building to Akin as she takes on the role of Safety/Compliance and HR Specialist, ensuring a welcoming and safe environment across all store locations.
“We’re strongly committed to southwest Iowa and the communities that support us,” Ryan Draper said.
“We’re looking forward to community involvement
and investment as we enter this new era of ownership. Rest assured you will still see the same committed, in-store leadership that you are used to - nothing has changed there,” with Michele adding “Your feedback is welcomed and will be taken to heart. We are kicking off the holiday season with some new in-store promotions and giving campaigns - follow us on social media to stay updated!”
Finally, the new ownership group wants to reiterate that “as we move forward, our focus is on positivity, community engagement, and delivering a great experience for everyone. We hope to see you soon!”
