be 'cr strong' with us

The Czech Village & New Bohemia neighborhoods are known for pulling together in times of crisis -- through a flood and an inland hurricane, and most recently, a pandemic. We are stronger together and proud to be from Cedar Rapids! 


RAYGUN has many humorous t-shirts, full of inside jokes about what it means to be Cedar Rapidian and across the street, you'll find a mural, called "Humans of CR" on the side of The Bohemian.
