Historic Cabin Restoration - The two City Park demonstration cabins were built by the Old Settlers' Association of Johnson County in 1889 and 1913 to teach visitors about what life was like for settlers in Iowa before the 1880s.

Quotable - 'Since Trump has become president, gun sales are way, way down for two reasons,' said Arlan Stegen, owner of Sports Outfitters in southwest Cedar Rapids. 'He's very pro-gun and we don't have to worry about our Second Amendment rights, and people feel safer.'
