MINNEWAWA CLUB
Minnewawa Club. Social gathering spot. An area approximately opposite the present JOHN DEERE DUBUQUE WORKS, the club was located on an island until the lock and dam submerged the land. Most of the old-timers agreed that the area was used often during [PROHIBITION]]. Prior to that, it was a loosely organized men-only gathering site.
