The
turnout for this final event was just as large as it has been with
the other two events this summer, with shoulder-to-shoulder people
in certain areas, while in other parts of the four streets facing
the Logan County Courthouse, there was a little more breathing room.
Vendors did extremely well again this month, getting plenty of
attention from visitors to the event, and the live entertainment was
also well received.
The theme of the month was “Summer Vibes,” but it could easily have
been “Happy Faces,” as that was what one saw almost everywhere.
The kid zone area with bouncy houses and oversized board games and a
very popular corn pool sponsored by the Logan County Farm Bureau
Young Leaders was busy throughout the evening.
The art fair street in front of the Lincoln Arts Institute was a
popular stop for many visitors, and as usual, the lines were long
where face painting and henna tattoos were offered.

The Railsplitter Antique Auto
Club hosted a car show on Pulaski Street, and this month had was
could easily be termed as the largest turn out of vehicles this
year.
Vendors offering food and drink did well as did the local
establishments such as Guest House, Spirited Republic, and Top
Hat Creamery.
Overall, it was a great end to the season for the Third Friday
Downtown Lincoln events. But wait… there could be one more.
According to Lincoln Alderman Kevin Bateman, after everything
was said and done on Friday, there was talk of whether the
committee could do one more event this year in September.
Bateman said nothing had been decided, but it could happen.
LDN will keep readers posted if we hear anything further.
