<WelcomeWelcome to Mount Pleasant,

where tradition meets innovation.Mount Pleasant is a proud, yet friendly,community in southeast Iowa, a hub ofculture and business surrounded by apostcard-worthy countryside. If you arelocating in or returning to our area, weinvite you to stop by the Mount PleasantArea Chamber Alliance office in ourhistoric downtown, where you are assuredof finding a warm smile and all theinformation you’ll need to feel right athome. We also encourage you to explorethe community online through ourwebsite, www.mountpleasantiowa.org.

Is history your passion? Then MountPleasant is your place. A steady flow oflegendary speakers in the mid-19thcentury, including Frederick Douglass andSojourner Truth, helped earn thecommunity the nickname “The Athens ofIowa.” A century and a half later, a visitorto the campus of Iowa Wesleyan College

will stroll past a statue of Arabella BabbMansfield, the first woman lawyer in thenation admitted to the Bar, and a uniformthat once belonged to Dr. Peggy Whitson,the first woman to command theinternational space station. Both graduatedfrom the college, as did Dr. ThomasPoulter, chief scientist on two of AdmiralRichard Byrd’s Antarctic expeditions, andDr. James Van Allen, principal investigatorfor the Explorer I and III satellite missions.More recently, Mount Pleasant launchedTom Vilsack, once the city’s mayor, whowent on to terms as Governor of Iowa andSecretary of Agriculture under PresidentBarack Obama.

While science, law and governance areadmirable pursuits, Mount Pleasant also isjustifiably proud of its agricultural heritage.This is most evident over the long LaborDay weekend, when thousands of visitorsfrom across the country and around theglobe pour into the Midwest Old ThreshersReunion. From the chug of countlessantique tractors to the sight of a coal blacksteam locomotive pulling passenger carsloaded with laughing children, OldThreshers will warm the hearts of anyonenostalgic for a simpler time.

And yet, even with our reverence for thepast, Mount Pleasant remains focused on

the future. Several large employers andhundreds of commercial and specialtyenterprises keep the community hummingwith economic activity. Business peopleespecially appreciate Mount Pleasant’sstrong, engaged leadership and location atthe intersection of two four-lane highwayswith six metropolitan markets within aday’s drive. An ever-expanding list ofamenities that includes an aquatic center,bike and canoe trails, library and civiccenter, golf course, community theater andmultiple sports complexes, ensure there isplenty of fun when the work day is done.

At the Mount Pleasant Area ChamberAlliance, a partnership of the MountPleasant Area Chamber of Commerce,Mount Pleasant Area DevelopmentCommission, Main Street Mount Pleasantand Henry County Tourism, we strive toaccelerate economic growth in ourcommunity and the surrounding area.

HistoryWithout the trailblazing spirit and hard work of earlyforward-thinking leaders, Mount Pleasant would not bethe exceptionally dynamic, thriving community thatstands today.

The Henry County area opened its doors for settlementon June 1, 1833, with the development of Mount Pleasantfollowing close behind in 1835. The town was the site ofthe area’s premier hard-surface road. Constructed ofwooden planks linking Mount Pleasant to Burlington, theroadway was ultimately replaced by tracks for theBurlington and Missouri River Railroads in 1856.

Established educational institutions proved to play asignificant role in the history of Mount Pleasant. In fact,the community was at one point dubbed the “Athens ofIowa” due to its strong focus on education.Supplementing the public school system, three four-yearcolleges were in operation in Henry County – WhittierCollege in Salem, Iowa Wesleyan University (now IowaWesleyan College) and German College in MountPleasant.

Home-based within Mount Pleasant, Iowa WesleyanUniversity opened in 1842 and is today hailed as Iowa’soldest co-educational, degree-granting institution. It washere that seven Iowa Wesleyan co-eds formed a newphilanthropic education organization known as theInternational PEO Sisterhood in 1869. The initialWomen’s Rights Convention in Iowa was held in thecommunity in 1870, and in 1943, Iowa Wesleyan Collegeorganized the state’s first women’s intercollegiatebasketball team.

During the area’s early years, the agricultural industryreigned supreme. While the community retained strongties to its agricultural roots, past residents understood theimportance of expanding the county’s employment basebeyond the farm. With the end of World War II, MountPleasant began to recruit new industry to the area. Theeffort attracted several new business ventures, with manyof these original companies still calling Mount Pleasanthome to this day. These long-time community partnersinclude such nationally known companies as WalmartDistribution, Veyance Technologies, Pioneer Hi-Bred andHearth & Home Technologies, a division of HONCorporation.

The slogan of Mount Pleasant radio stationKILJ says it best: “Broadcasting from theCROSSROADS OF THE WORLD!”

With two new four-lane highways, U.S.Highway 34 and U.S. Highway 218/27,intersecting in Mount Pleasant, thecommunity is less than a day’s drive fromthe Midwest’s largest markets – Chicago,Saint Louis, Minneapolis/Saint Paul,Indianapolis, Omaha, Kansas City and DesMoines. In fact, the latter highway’snickname, The Avenue of the Saints, wascoined by a Mount Pleasant entrepreneurand community leader who recognized thelogistical advantages of a highway linkingSaint Louis, MO, to Saint Paul, MN.

Henry County is easily accessed by bothpassenger and rail freight. An Amtrak trainpasses through Mount Pleasant’s historicstation twice daily on its way betweenChicago and San Francisco. Meanwhile,the Burlington Northern Santa Fe andNorfolk Southern railways help localmanufacturers keep both inbound andoutbound freight costs low. They areassisted in this effort by local shortlineoperator Burlington Junction Railway,which provides a variety of shipping andtransload services.

Of course, rail is not the only way to delivergoods. More than 70 local and nationalmotor freight carriers serve Henry County,offering full truck, less-than-truckload(LTL) and small-package shipping.

And if you hear the buzz of an airplaneengine, chances are it took off from the4,001-foot-long, hard-surface runway atMount Pleasant Municipal Airport. Therunway accommodates up to medium-sizedaircraft. A grass runway is also available.Aviators can take advantage of year-roundaccess, fuel services, hangar facilities andmaintenance services, along with executivecharter offerings and professional flightinstruction.
