Did you know breast cancer is the most common cancer in
American women, except for skin cancers? It is estimated
that in 2021, approximately 30% of all new female cancer
diagnoses will be breast cancer.

Friday
afternoon was perfect for the Lincoln Community High
School Homecoming Parade. The parade was well attended
with people lining both sides of the street coming up
Kickapoo from Wyatt Avenue and around the Logan County
Courthouse Square.
There were class floats, local clubs, bands from local
schools, homecoming class attendants and their escorts,
and of course homecoming King and Queen. The 2021Queen
is Brooklyn Summers and King is Evan Maynard.
The theme for the parade this year was "Space: Out of
this world." The high school classes, in particular, did
an excellent job of interpreting that theme into large
floats.
