          Lincoln Mayor Keith Snyder and 4th Ward Alderman Jeff Hoinacki, the City Council’s
        
        
          coordinator for the Lincoln Art and Balloon Festival, have announced the winners in the City’s
        
        
          Art and Balloon Festival Giveaway. As a Prime Sponsor of the Festival the City of Lincoln
        
        
          receives several benefits and complimentary items. This year, as it has for each of the past five
        
        
          years, the City chose to share those benefits with the citizens and taxpayers of Lincoln who
        
        
          underwrite the cost of City’s sponsorship and every other activity of City government.
