MUSCATINE, Iowa – A flotilla of hovercraft will be on the Mississippi River and on the Muscatine riverfront this weekend as the Hoverclub of America conducts Hoverally 2022 in Riverside Park.

The old boat launch located on the downstream end of Riverside Park will be closed to public use Thursday, July 21, through Sunday, July 24. Parking will also be restricted in the area of the old boat launch but a lane will be kept open for access to the parking lot near the basketball courts.

Those who plan on attending the “Almost Friday Fest” event from 5-8 p.m. on Thursday are reminded that parking will be unavailable south of the Iowa Avenue entrance to Riverside Park.

Please be patient and enjoy all the activities and amenities available on the Muscatine riverfront, in Riverside Park, and across all City of Muscatine parks and recreational opportunities.
