The
naming rights to a creek in Kalona, Iowa, will be put up for bid on
eBay, town officials said. The creek is currently called West Drainage
Ditch, but most people in town refer to it simply as “the crick.” The
idea was hatched by Dan Ehl, editor of the Kalona News, as a way to
raise money for the city. City council members said they will consider
any name as long as it’s appropriate – the name will be subject to
government approval. Funds from the winning bid will go toward replacing
sidewalks to provide better access to schools, parks and areas that
children frequent as part of the city’s Safe Route To Schools project.
