 To the editor:The GFWC
Lincoln Woman’s Club would like to thank the many Logan County
schools who supported our recent graduation sign fundraiser. Nine
area schools ordered “Congratulations Graduate” signs to recognize
and honor their newly graduated students. Working with Lincoln
Printers, the signs were produced in each school’s colors and
featured a photo of each student.
LWC members planted the Lincoln Community High School graduates'
signs on the Logan County Courthouse lawn on the day of the 2021
Senior Parade. Many of the new graduates enjoyed posing by the signs
after the parade’s end before taking them home. Other schools
displayed their signs on the school driveway for several days to
honor their graduates before students took them home to their own
yards. Some displayed the signs on the school lawn on graduation day
while several schools’ staff delivered the signs personally to the
graduates’ homes.
It was truly a win-win situation where the schools were able to
recognize and honor their students in this graduation season, and
the GFWC Lincoln Woman’s Club could raise funds to support local
scholarships, and other club projects including the club’s literacy
program, veteran’s and active duty troops’ Christmas stockings, and
other community and club needs.
