A Jackson County recreation area is receiving $400-thousand dollars in state financial aid. Iowa Economic Development Authority board members approved a Community Attraction and Tourism grant for the Prairie Creek Recreation Area project near Maquoketa. The project is being led by the city of Maquoketa and Jackson County.
The total project has a price tag of $ 2 million dollars and includes streambank restoration for fishing, viewing and camping; construction of shelters, restrooms, trailheads and bridges; a trail connection from the recreation area to the Maquoketa city limits; and the addition of an 18-hole championship-caliber disc golf course.
