LDN -- Top Stories

The votes have been counted, and the winner of the 2019 Holiday Express Gingerbread Contest is Miss Emily Lund's Kindergarten Class from Carroll Catholic School in Lincoln. The little gingerbread community with several small homes, marshmallow snowmen and dogs, a starlight mint sidewalk with candy cane lamp posts caught the attention of many and earned the majority vote. The voting was done as a 'people's choice,' so everyone who came into the Logan County Tourism Bureau Depot on Small Business Saturday and the week following had the opportunity to vote for their favorite creation.

Miss Lund's class will receive a lovely trophy that they can proudly display in their classroom.

The gingerbread contest was a great addition to the Small Business Saturday, and it is hoped that this will become a tradition that grows year after year.

This Christmas there is a very special holiday display, actually several of them, in the Carnegie building of the Lincoln Public Library. Library staff member Deb Owens worked to bring the days of old back to the library with displays featuring people in party attire that would have been worn in 1902, the year the building was erected.

Owens wanted the displays to be a 'last holiday' gift for the library’s soon to be retired Director Richard Sumrall and Assistant Director Sue Rehtmeyer.
