We were the last Disney Store in the entire state of Iowa. We were also one of the few pink and green stores left..i.e. stores with plush mountain and moving animation at the top of the store. Stores in the area which also closed were Peoria, IL, and Rockford,IL. The closest now are Aurora, IL, Oakbrook, IL, Lombard, IL and of course Chicago, IL I was a lead manager cast member at the Davenport store…we were closed in june 2008.
