A Message from the CEO...

It’s July. July is the county fair to a lot of people. To others, it’s family vacations. To me - it’s RAGBRAI. The 500-mile trek across Iowa on a bicycle. Iowa Specialty Hospitals & Clinics has a team that has been going for the last 7 years, and this year is no exception. There are forty (+/-) bikers in our group. We camp at friends’ and families’ houses along the way and a good time is had by all.

Iowa Specialty Hospitals & Clinics has a team joining RAGBRAI again this year!

RAGBRAI, Register’s Annual Great Bicycle Ride Across Iowa, will be coming to a town near you. Give our team a warm greeting when you see them!
