City of the Corn Palace and really bizarre statues around town. Can you handle it?
The Corn Palace is the biggest tourist attraction in Mitchell. People flock to the down town, er.. Uptown, just to have their picture taken in front of it.
I lived here for nearly a year, so check out Mitchell through all seasons on my pages.
- Pros:On the Interstate. And for outdoorsmen: Cabela's.
- Cons:Not much else here.
- In a nutshell:Corny town.

Nice taste of Mitchell! You do them proud. Birthday greetings from Alaska!
Tom Jones @ the Corn Palace! And, are all the locals as lively as Zeke & Zack? lol! (only joking). Good on you for giving small town America Mitchell a decent write up Jenn.
Finally a page for the Corn Palace. I have a soft spot in my heart for unabashed tourist traps like this.
I passed through here and saw the Corn Palace when I was little. There is definitely more than the Corn Palace in Mitchell.
You did a great Job on your Mitchell Page! I was born and raised there for 18 years.
I grew up in Mitchell. Good memories of childhood there. Yeah, many summer nights spent at the Zesto. When did you live there? I left for college in 1986 and have only visited a few times since then.
Let's see--Singing Pickles, 4 day Rodeo, a CORN FERTILITY RITE with a chilli cooking contest, plus a drive-in movie and there's more?!?!! I'm speechless with wonder. Where's an ethnographer when you need one?
Enjoyed your comments about Mitchell. I wish I had known about the Kelly Special on my last visit!
Hey Jenn....if I ever find my way up to Mitchell, let's have a mini-VT meeting. We can eat at Zestos and then see a horror flick at the drive-in. That'd be midwestern cool beyond belief. Very interesting hometown page.
I still talk about the corn palace almost 10 years after my visit.
