“Agriculture is essential to Nebraska’s economy. Education, outreach and resources are needed to continuously develop farmer-leaders. We support the Linco Ag & Education Center, a facility that will play a role in hosting the community and industry partners.”

“The events I could host at this facility will bring in over 2,000 people per year. Not only does this facility support the culture and passions of the rodeo community, it will provide excellent entertainment for the region, becoming a true economic driver.”

LinCo Legacy

The Lincoln County Fairgrounds have been in operation since 1944, but Lincoln County’s legacy of agriculture and education extends centuries beyond that. Today, Lincoln County is the No. 2 cattle producing county in Nebraska, and ranks among the top 20 cattle producing counties in America.

But a strong legacy is only sustained by people who believe in it.
