Lincoln Daily News is fortunate in that we have staff who enjoy getting out in the community and documenting the day-to-day happenings in Logan County with photos.

Some of the photos to follow were taken at organized events, and others were just people or things we saw as we traversed the streets and roads of Lincoln and Logan County.

But regardless of how the photos came to be, they represent a moment in time in our community and help to once again draw attention to how active and involved our citizens are.
