I should mention that we have a High A baseball team in town (Cedar Rapids Kernels) which are a Twins farm team. The Rough Riders are the locks semi-pro hockey team. There was arena football, but I’m not sure if they are still around. U of Iowa has all major sports, and football and basketball tickets are hot commodities. Wrestling is popular as well.
There is a reservoir (Lake MacBride) just south of town if you like boating/swimming/fishing.
To the NW of town is the chain of lakes natural area near Palo, which is popular with outdoorsman. There are also a few shooting ranges within a quick drive of town for folks who like to target shoot. Not sure about indoor ranges, the only one I’ve seen is at the Isaac Walton league in town.
