On the heels of the Chicago Cubs winning the 2016 World Series, its farm team – the Iowa Cubs – is reveling in the spotlight of its parent organization. Many current Chicago Cubs superstars played in Des Moines and Principal Park on the way to the big leagues. Iowa Cubs manager of media relations Shelby Cravens will share her experiences working with local, regional and national media to respond to editorial opportunities about the triple-A affiliate and its players.
