Our Mission

To educate and empower the residents of Council Bluffs to take greater responsibility for enhancing our environment thereby instilling a sense of community, pride, and leadership.







Keep Council Bluffs Beautiful and the Council Bluffs Recycling Center seek to make the 2009 RAGBRAI a litter free event. Riders and their support crews will be encouraged to GO GREEN by reducing, reusing and recycling. Numerous waste receptacles and recycling containers will be available for use throughout the several days of festivities leading up to the start of the ride.

The 37th RAGBRAI (The Register's Annual Great Bicycle Ride Across Iowa) begins in Council Bluffs on July 19th at the Mid America Center.  Bicyclists from all 50 states and from around the world participate in this 7 day ride across the state.
