The second half of our Bronze Sponsors, as promised!
Iowa Medical Partners is thankful for all the support we receive from our local community. Our bronze sponsors have donated items we use as raffles and prizes throughout the year. IMP officers have provided some input below about why they love these establishments. I encourage all our members to check out these businesses! You will not be disappointed!
Molly’s Cupcakes
Molly’s bakes some of the tastiest creations in Iowa City and has an adorable storefront complete with board games, comfy pillows and swing seating. They are located in Iowa City and everything for sale is delicious. A personal favorite and one of their more popular items is the Crème Brule cupcake. They also have coffee, homemade ice cream, edible cookie dough, and will do special orders for events. Any cupcake can also be made into a large cake size treat (I have ordered a Crème Brule cake more than once.) The employees are all spectacular and you can’t beat the flavors and fun environment! - Bridget Campbell, SOS 2019

Coral Ridge Mall
The Coral Ridge Mall Carousel is wonderful fun for kids! My daughter loves it and would happily ride it for hours at a time if I could stay on it that long myself. One of our monthly highlights is going to Free Family Fridays where you can ride it for free, but be warned, once you let your kids go on it they’ll want to ride it again every single time you go to the mall! -Shannon Squires, Social Media 2019
Coral Ridge Mall Ice Rink offers a fun-filled experience for the whole family. Our three year old has enjoyed his first attempts at skating. We have also enjoyed watching the Hawkeye hockey team play their games at the rink and watching other kids take skating lessons and perfect their acrobatics.

Dumpling Darling
The quaintest little shop – if you have a crowd, be sure to order ahead and eat elsewhere! This Iowa City favorite began as a popular food truck and the demand was so great, they opened a brick and mortar restaurant. They have eco-friendly flatware and to-go containers (they even compost!!) and you can find something on the menu for everyone! Delicious Asian-fusion. -Katelyn Sexton, Former Book Club Chair 2019

Prairie Lights
Prairie Lights is a wonderful local bookstore located on Dubuque Street in downtown Iowa City. They offer a great selection of books for all ages and are more than happy to order anything not in stock. They have a children’s club that gives a discount on all children’s books, which–if your kids love books as much as mine—you can’t pass up. Prairie Lights also has frequent readings which often feature local authors, so keep your eyes open for their upcoming events! -Ceric Keck, Secretary 2019

Raygun
To be honest, I didn’t realize how hard it would be to describe Raygun in words when I signed up for this; and also, that’s the kind of sentence that they’d put on one of their t-shirts. Raygun is the Midwest’s weird kitschy souvenir shop. They sell things that make you feel like you’re on the inside of the joke, but maybe the people around you aren’t. They’re funny and odd and very liberal; once you see the inside of their store (on the corner of Washington & Dubuque in downtown Iowa City), you’ll realize that you’ve been seeing their t-shirts and bumper stickers everywhere, but they hadn’t quite registered yet. Check it out, or visit their website, which is a good place to get lost for a while. (Fun tip: I like to leave one of their “Someone in Iowa Loves Me” stickers in the guest bedroom when friends and family comes to visit!)
