Lincoln Reenactment

February 12 & 13, 2010
Abraham Lincoln Look-A-Like Contestants on the Courthouse steps.

Enjoy walking in the Freedom March and participate in the President's Ball learning the vintage dances.
You are invited to come and join us in celebrating the 200th birthday of our 16th President and namesake, Abraham Lincoln
on February 13 & 14, 2009

We  suggest a side trip to Delphos, Ks, during your visit to Lincoln.  Grace Bedell, the little girl who wrote the letter to Lincoln advising him to grow a beard, homesteaded with her husband near Delphos.  Their last years were spent in the small town where a monument honoring Grace and the letter stands in the city park.
