2019 Area Fall Festivals

2019 Area Fall Festivals LINCOLN DAILY NEWS Sept. 18, 2019 Page 129 And, there were plenty of Abraham Lincoln’s on the grounds, as some of those who came on Saturday to participate in the attempt for a world record at the Logan County Courthouse, decided to take in the sights at Postville as well. So, was it a challenging weekend? Yes, some would probably say it was, but it was still a good one, with plenty to do and plenty that got done, including the all-important National Railsplitting Competition. Congratulations to the Logan County Railsplitter Association for another great festival. Next year will mark the 50th Anniversary of the Railsplitter. That is quite an accomplishment and we hope that you will all mark your calendars now to return to Lincoln in September to be a part of this wonderful milestone event. Note: Results from the Saturday and Sunday competitions are posted separately. Be sure to check them out and note all the local folks who participated. Thanks to all, and thanks to those who came from far away places to be in the competition. You are appreciated. [Nila Smith and Lisa Ramlow]
