Every Saturday from May to October, the Ankeny Market & Pavilion hosts local vendors, food trucks, and live music.
Ankeny is home to two high schools, Ankeny High School and Ankeny Centennial High School. The annual Jag-Hawk football game is a must-see event.
Cascade Falls is a family-friendly water park with slides, a lazy river, and a children's play area. It's the perfect place to cool off in the summer.
"I grew up in Ankeny and love being able to see all of the new development that is taking place there when I visit."
