Year 2000 parties a "go" in Iowa

December 29, 1999 By admin

The Mayor of Seattle has cancelled his city’s planned New Year’s Eve celebration at the famous Space Needle, but the big millennium party in Iowa’s Capital City will go on. Fifteen mayors in the Des Moines Metro-area are hosting a huge New Year’s Eve party. Des Moines Mayor Preston Daniels says it’s not wise to cancel events due to vague terrorist threats. Other mayors around the state, like Lynn Clancey in Cedar Rapids, say they’ll be in their offices on New Year’s Eve to see if city operations are millennium bug-free.
