Tour de Corn was born partially out of our founders' love of their community and their visions to grow something special and lasting for the future. Likewise, we believe that tomorrow's "founders" are right on the cusp of making a difference in the world. In 2018, we established the Founders Scholarship for local community-minded seniors who will be enrolled in an accredited, higher education university or technical program in the coming year. We can't wait to see what these young people will do in their own communities in the future!

If you total our 13 years times -- 33 miles for each year -- we have ridden in Mississippi County at total of 429 miles. There must be some magic in that old blacktop road(s) that keep bringing us back. Folks, this is the creme de la creme of all rides. These organizers know how to run a ride.
