Our 2012 Vintage Photo Contest has ended. A special thanks to everyone who entered their photos and to those who voted for their two favorites. Congratulations to our two contest winners!
1st and 2nd Place 2012 Vintage Photo Contest Winners
The contest was created in hopes of acquiring a few historically significant photos that should be preserved as an important part of Logan County history. Although I wish more photos were entered, the winning photos and few others did achieve the contest goal. One such photo that deserves at least an honorable mention is that of Bertha Mullins. She was a very remarkable lady and I am very grateful that her photo and legacy is here to pay her homage.
