Itasca has a special charm that people love to call home. The charm of a retired schoolteacher swinging her granddaughter on the porch during the early morning sunrise...The charm of watching a father teach his son baseball during a sunny afternoon...The charm of passing a grandfather as he helps his grandson on his bike for the first time. Those are the special moments that this quiet small-town offers to those that hold Itasca dear to their heart.
