For strength through
community involvement
As we enter 2015 we should take a
moment to think about our future as a
community. Although the times remain
difficult and the future is uncertain,
Lincoln and Logan County both have the
opportunity to chart a new direction, one
that takes advantage of our assets, our
strengths, and the resolve of our fellow
citizens. Economic prosperity and civic
involvement do not come easy. They
occur when a community comes together
through a common purpose and exploits
all of its unique resources for the good of
all concerned.
As citizens of Lincoln and Logan County,
we are the masters of our fate, the ones
obligated to determine the economic
future for our loved ones and ourselves.
It is through the cooperation of our local
institutions and agencies that we can
significantly improve our chances for
economic and cultural success.
The Lincoln Public Library District stands
ready to serve as a partner in realizing
that success. Let ‘s prove to the world
that our community is open for business,
our community is a great place to live
and raise a family, and we are ready
to do whatever it takes to make that
declaration a reality.
- Richard Sumrall, Lincoln Public
Library District
For unity of
economic strengths
My holiday wish for Lincoln and Logan
County would be for the success of the
new organization formed by combining
the Chamber of Commerce, Logan
County Tourism, and Main Street
Lincoln. That success will ultimately
have to be driven by support from the
community.
Just yesterday I heard someone say
that the best time to makeup your
mind about someone, is never. I found
that interesting and think it will have to
apply as we look for ways to improve
our community and make it stronger.
