2022 Girls and Boys State

Eagle Scout Project

Eagle Scout Project

Great Turnout by Boy Scouts to Honorably burn several hundred American Flags

Garrison Flags are difficult to man, but the scouts did a super job!

The Boy Scouts of America is one of the nation’s largest and most  prominent values-based youth development organizations, providing  programs for young people that build character, trains them in the  responsibilities of participating citizenship, and develops personal  fitness.

For more than 100 years, Boy Scouts of America has helped  build future leaders by combining educational activities and lifelong  values with fun.


Alex  is a member of Boy Scout Troop 76 in Waverly, Nebraska. He received his  honor Eagle Scout honor in March 2018.​Alex's project was to  replace/upgrade wooden street signs on the ground of the Lincoln  Regional Center. This project took 3 1/2 months to complete, with over  107 hours in labor. These signs were made entirely by hand. A total of  20 signs and six sign posts were constructed.

LEGION BASEBALL

March 2022

Update - Legion Baseball & Legion Post 3 - 2022 This article is late in coming. Many have wondered about the involvement of Legion Baseball and Post 3, for the past 2 years and the future. 2019 was the last year we were lessee of Sherman Field from the city, and fully involved in financially supporting Legion Baseball through Legion Post 3. Today, the Post supports the program in name only. So what happened? 

1. Prior to the 2020 season we assumed the position that for various reasons, Post 3 could no longer maintain the help required to operate and maintain the field. Several baseball committee members moved and Chair, Dick Clarence, passed away. We could find no one who would step up and assume these positions.

2. The increasing and exorbitant rent from the City of Lincoln for Sherman Field and LPS placed a huge financial strain on the post. Revenue from the gate and tournaments did not make up for the thousands, of dollars needed to rent those fields. 

3. Covid, as we all know, caused the cancellation of many sporting events, including Legion Baseball. 

4. Withdrawal of national sponsorship and support from the national organization. 5. Department of Nebraska’s decision to eliminate area tournaments during the Covid era, which was a major income for the Baseball budget. 

For these reasons, the decision was made and declared that we would provide administrative sponsorship to American Legion Baseball in Lincoln, Nebraska. We also agreed to provide minimal financial support, as we were able, but not enter into a lease for Sherman Field, LPS field or have any direct control of the summer program. We apologize for the late report on Legion Baseball. Furthermore, we would like to thank the sponsors who helped fund the program in the previous years. Thank You plaques were given individually to sponsors in 2020. The following deserve gratitude of thanks for their sponsorship to help continue Legion Baseball.
