Attendees do not need to be a U.S. Cellular customer to attend.</p><p>“Our associates are available to assist residents in learning how to use their device to plan a park adventure, find hiking trails and save their phone if it gets wet,” said Mike Adams, U.S. Cellular’s director of sales for Iowa and Nebraska. “It’s important to properly prepare for outdoor activities and protect your smartphone with accessories, such as waterproof, rugged cases, to avoid mishaps that prevent you from capturing any moment.”</p><p>Please call 319-341-6050 for more information or to RSVP.</p> 2018-08-09 11:45:00 -05008/19/1811:00 a.m.U.S. CellularCoralville -
