We are a community of people with diverse interests and backgrounds; a community of individualists; and certainly a community with a unique history. We have a story to tell and we hope as you visit the various pages on this website, you will get to know us better and learn more about making this a place to call home, to grow a business, to visit.
MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN 2010 Volunteer Community
Development The start of a new year presents an opportunity to take a fresh look at the past 365 days and the coming 365. When looking back at the past 365 for the community of Villisca, what was accomplished and what was started is impressive and it is exciting to see what the next 365 days will hold. What was accomplished was done because people got together and chose to make a difference and indeed did just that.

To the right is a note received by e-mail from the Rundles. It has been no easy task to get some technical difficulties resolved so we could get the new site up and running. We do want to thank Kelly and Tammy for all their efforts to get this done. Be sure to see the news from Fourthwall Films at villiscamovie.com They have had their own new news to share in the last couple weeks. They will be going nationwide with sales around October 20 so look for it at your local store. Villisca: Living With a Mystery can also be rented online through thru Netflix. And, in the midwest, it can be rented at Family Video stores and some independents so look for it there as well. |
A note from the Rundles: "Congratulations
on a great job on the villisca.com website. We are VERY HAPPY that villisca.com
will be used to promote the City of Villisca, and the Chamber of Commerce.
It is as it should be. ~~Kelly and Tammy Rundle" |
