(Radio Iowa) – The head wrestling coach at Baxter High School in central Iowa is in the intensive care unit of a California hospital after an accident over Spring Break. Twenty-seven-year-old Joe Amadeo was out jogging in Palm Springs, California on March 16th when he was struck by a passing vehicle. Amadeo was taken to a nearby trauma center following the accident.

(Atlantic, Iowa) – Today (Wednesday), is the last day until later this summer, for you to order and pick-up your favorite food, drinks and appetizers, from the Atlantic McDonald’s Restaurant. As we’ve previously mentioned, the store is closing at the end of the day so that a renovation project may begin on the same site. The new store, which will open on the same site later this summer, will feature two drive-through lanes, instead of one, and two side-by-side order points, instead of one, in order to improve service.
New Atlantic McDonald’s site plan (File image, 10/2/21)
The City of Atlantic’s Planning and Zoning Commission approved plans last October, for the changes to the store. They heard from Casey Thompson, a Design Engineer with Bishop Construction in Des Moines, who told KJAN News that the building and site will look very similar to the more modern McDonald’s restaurants in Des Moines, Omaha, and other, larger cities. He said those locations have straighter lines on the buildings, and an updated look. The actual lot size will be smaller, but the building size will not change.

Bishop construction was hired to do the work by McDonald’s Real Estate Company, based in Elkhorn, Neb.
