Page 226 2018 Logan County Fair Lincoln Daily News July 29 - August 5, 2018 Among the Carters, Criders, and Runyons, who are veterans of the competition, were newer faces Karen Sandel, Joyce Conrady, and Dana (Martin) Oltmanns. Oltmanns said she started baking when she was five and has been baking for 53 years. She took a break from the competition, but is back after 10 years. Most of these contestants enjoy baking and the friendly competition, though the heat made it a challenge. In addition, it is a great way to raise funds for the 4-H programs. Mike Maske has been donating his service to the auction for many years and always prompts bidders to go higher. As the grand total of $4,800 indicates, the donors like to support a great program and enjoy delicious cakes. David Carter – Red Velvet Cake Carter said, “It is red and velvety, which is where the name comes from.” Marvin Bartman won the bidding at $300, then asked that it be resold, with the other portion of the money to go to Zion Lutheran School. Jim Xamis won the second bid at $300. Joyce Conrady – Angel Food Cake Conrady said, “I had fun doing this.” Ben Conrady won the bidding at $400.
