for contributions made by June 30 to the College’s annual

Logan
County Tourism Bureau Director Morgan Gleason addressed a huge crowd
on Thursday evening as the LCTB hosted a ribbon cutting and open
house at the Lincoln Depot. The depot became the home of the tourism
bureau in May of 2018. Since that time, the board has worked to
design an interior that was complementary to the original depot and
at the same time draws attention to the many tourism activities that
are available within our county. Those in attendance had many good
comments on the displays and use of the building.
LDN will have additional coverage from the ribbon cut and open house
early next week.
