Winside tops NCIP contest
Winside Residents were proud to learn last week their community received the first place Nebraska Community Improvement award in its population category, during the 19th annual Nebraska Community Improvement Program banquet Friday night in Lincoln's Pershing Auditorium.
Accepting the plaque and $450 cast award were, Gloria Lessmann, Curt Jeffries, Julie Kant, Don Nelson, Marvin Cherry, Marilyn Morse, Betty Thies, Ida Fenske and Ron Leapley.
Mrs. Lessmann said the Winside Community Improvement Committee will hold its reorganizational meeting at the Stop Inn.
The group will elect officers and establish goals for the 1983 year. Mrs. Lessmann said everyone is encouraged to attend and bring their ideas.
