The donor of the new Abraham Lincoln Covered Wagon display, Larry VanBibber, manned the ceremonial scissors at the dedication Thursday morning. Jim and Shelley Horn are hosting Mr. Lincoln and his wagon at their J&S Auto Centre business, which affords viewing of the site from Route 66 and the Logan County Fairgrounds. They were joined in the midst of snow flurries by representatives of the Abraham Lincoln Tourism Bureau of Logan County, Logan County Route 66 Heritage Foundation, Lincoln/Logan County Chamber of Commerce, Lincoln city officials and other tourism officials.
