Ashley O'Neill did
something that hasn't been done before in Logan County. Ashley
bowled a perfect 300 game Sunday at Logan Lanes in the Swingers
League. Logan Lanes owner Sean Taylor says that Ashley's performance
is the first by a lady bowler in the county. The young lady's
perfection came in the first game of her series. Ashley also bowled
a 237 and a 193 to end up with a 730 series.
 The
Humane Society of Logan County will have its final DOG WASH
of the summer on Saturday, Sept. 26, from 10 a.m. until 2 p.m. at
J&S Auto, 1006 Woodlawn Road in Lincoln. The wash is inside and we
will have warm water to bathe your precious pooch. Donations
accepted for the wash. Dog nail clipping available for an additional
$7. First 25 dogs receive a free doggie bag.
