Ho
Ho Dough reminder!
[DEC.
16, 2000] It may be
chilly, but what is typically the largest local crowd gathering of
the year will occur tomorrow night. The City of Lincoln is invited
to the 2000 Ho Ho Dough Giveaway Drawing on Sunday, December 17th,
at 5:00 p.m. The drawing will take place on the north side of the
Logan County Courthouse. Those individuals who have collected
tickets from shopping at patronizing local businesses need to be at
the drawing in order to collect a prize. A winning number will be
called out, and the person with that ticket has two minutes to claim
the prize. If no one steps forward, a new ticket will be drawn, and
the old winning ticket number will be void. There are three prizes:
$5,000 cash, $500 in Ho Ho Dough Certificates, and $250 in Ho Ho
Dough Certificates. The Ho Ho Dough Certificates may be spent same
as cash at any of the businesses which distributed Ho Ho Dough
tickets. Plan to be at the Courthouse by 5:00 p.m. Don't miss your
chance to claim a prize!
