 Rotary is asking the community to help make this a "picture perfect"
holiday season and help Rotarians with "stocking" their shelves in
order to stock the Logan County Food Pantry shelves. The goal is to
have the Rotary Christmas Tree filled with nonperishable food items
by the time of the Main Street Lincoln Christmas Parade on Dec. 5.
The man-made tree was constructed by Lincoln Rotarians to help
measure and display the amount of food donated by the community.
"We want everyone to have a visual of the generosity of our
wonderful community. This not only allows us to show off the amount
of food donated, but we are also hoping it will be a nice Christmas
display for our downtown." said Michelle Bauer, who is helping lead
the project for Rotary.
You can watch the Lincoln Rotary Christmas Tree being decorated
with food items by visiting the display window at 113 N. Kickapoo
St., next to Abe's.
