In this episode of the Waukee Podcast, we’re covering everything from the fast-paced world of track and field to the vital work of maintaining Waukee’s natural beauty—and even getting a front-row seat to the latest updates from City Hall. First, Jamie Thompson takes us through her never-ending to-do list, highlighting upcoming events and key happenings around town. Next, Clarence Hudson sits down with Waukee Warriors Track Coach Taylor Ashman to talk about the team’s preparation for the season and what fans can expect as they head into their first outdoor meet of the year.
Shifting gears, we welcome Sarah First, Master Gardener and dedicated conservationist, to discuss the importance of the Prairie Clean-Up happening this Sunday. This annual effort helps preserve and maintain Waukee’s impressive 60 acres of reconstructed prairie, ensuring its long-term health for generations to come. Finally, Waukee Mayor Courtney Clarke joins us in the studio for an insightful conversation about the state of the city—reflecting on the successes of the past year and offering a preview of what’s to come in 2025. Whether you're a sports fan, a nature enthusiast, or just invested in the future of Waukee, this episode has something for everyone!
