Page 6 2024 PAINT THE PAPER PINK Lincoln Daily News Oct/Nov 2024 There was a call to the audience for those who are cancer survivors to please stand and be acknowledged. More than a dozen people stood. There was then a call for all those who have lost loved ones to cancer to please stand and be acknowledged and there were a great many who answered that call. Following the acknowledgement of those who had lost loved ones, there was a moment of silence for those who have passed which was part of the luminaria observance for the evening. Turning away from the solemn moment and getting ready to amp up the fun, the Logan County Fair royalty was introduced. On hand for the evening was Little Miss Logan County Olivia Harmsen and Junior Miss Logan County Sophia Goodman. Ty and Cody Tucker were then introduced as the auctioneers for the evening, with Cindy Guyett being the “reader” who would assist with describing the items being offered on the auction block. The next nearly two hours brought in lots of fun, laughter, teasing from the auctioneers, and big bucks for ACS. Some of the highlights of the evening included the re-sale of the Susan G. Komen bike that had sold last year, was donated back and sold again this year not once but twice. Seth Goodman and his mom Gaynor seemed to get a big kick out of bidding against one another for the bike, though it could have been a bit of a set up for Seth as at the end of the night, Gaynor walked away having won nothing and Seth was left to pay for all the items she bid Continued --
