Letters to the Editor

Lincoln Daily News welcomes letters of appreciation, information and opinion on matters pertaining to the community. 
 
Controversial issues:
As a community we need to be able to talk openly about matters that affect the quality of our lives. The most effective and least offensive manner to get your point across is to stick to the issue and refrain from commenting on another person's opinion. Letters that deviate from focusing on the issue may be rejected or edited and marked as such.

To the editor:

The Military Tribute Banner Program has reached its third-year anniversary.

On behalf of myself and the community of Lincoln, a special thanks to Kirby Rogers and the Lincoln Rotary Club. Kirby has been full throttle with this project and our banners wouldn’t be in place without him putting in the work.

Special thanks to the city of Lincoln. Walt Landers and his team for putting up the banners, taking them down, rehanging and fixing brackets.

[to top of second column in this letter]

Special thanks to the rest of the steering committee members for making this possible for the city of Lincoln.

More banners will be hung this year so be on the look out for new hometown hero faces.

Carrie Pethy
