In 2006 Lincoln was named "All America City" by the National Civic League prestigious All America City Award, an honor bestowed by the National Civic League recognizing communities of all size that have made major progress in meeting their most important needs.

Annual Chamber and Community events include a July 4th parade and fireworks, a downtown Farmer’s Market, Feats of Clay, Tour de Lincoln, Holiday Parade & Tree Lighting.

As we continue to grow, things are always changing. Be sure to check this site as well as the City of Lincoln web site for the latest additions and updates to the city’s Community Calendar and the Chamber Calendar.

• The All-America City Award application is purposely arduous to ensure only the most deserving of communities apply and are selected. Each year, only a small percentage (roughly 5%) of those that begin the application process decide in the end that they have substance to meet the AAC criteria and have the drive to be named an All-America City.
