Bus tour makes “wonderful” stop in Mason City

MASON CITY – A private bus tour made a stop in Mason City on Saturday to take in the best the city has to offer.

The tour was sponsored by the Jefferson Highway Association.  About 50 persons from all over the country, some from as far away as Utah, were on the bus enjoying a day that started in Ames and made its way to the Iowa-Minnesota border before heading south again to stop in Mason City.

The group toured the Rock Glen neighborhood with its Frank Lloyd Wright homes and then toured the Historic Park Inn hotel and enjoyed a Hy-Vee catered lunch there.

From the hotel, the tour came by former City Councilman Max Weaver’s “Rancho Deluxe Z Garden.”

Weaver was presented with a Jefferson Highway marker, painted by a young man from Minnesota who was on the tour Saturday.  A “JH Pole,” as it was described by Jefferson Highway President Mike Conlin.

“This is the way they found the route,” said Scott Berka, Treasurer of the Jefferson Highway Association.

Weaver said it will be a “central attraction” in the garden.”
