This week marks the 85th anniversary of the Logan County Fair and there was a huge turnout for the ribbon-cutting ceremony hosted by Lincoln Daily News at the west gate of the fairgrounds. Logan County Fair Association President Kevin Kurtz was accompanied by several board members, members of Logan County and city of Lincoln governments behind the ribbon. Kurtz addressed the group, as did Logan County native Senator Sally Turner and Lincoln Mayor Tracy Welch.
