Mid-America launches RAGBRAI Eldora website

Submitted by admin on Mon, 03/09/2015 - 4:55pm

ELDORA -  The RAGBRAI Eldora publicity committee and Mid-America Publishing announced Friday the official launch of www.ragbraieldora.com, a mobile-friendly online information portal for RAGBRAI riders, visitors, vendors, and Eldora residents. 

The website now features a welcome letter from Eldora mayor Jim Brown, information about the theme contest, and an online application for Eldora residents interested in hosting RAGBRAI riders in their home or yard.  Users can connect with the RAGBRAI Eldora Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram accounts through the website, as well as sign up for the RAGBRAI Eldora email list and send questions through the Contact Us page.

In the future, the site will have even more ways of collecting information from users, such as a rider housing application, online volunteer sign-up, vendor application, and a need-a-ride message board. 

The website will be constantly evolving as the planning for RAGBRAI progresses and will receive a design makeover as soon as the Eldora theme and logo for RAGBRAI are announced.

The website was created by Mid-America Publishing, the Eldora Newspapers' parent company.
