A “Chalk the Lincoln Highway” event will be held on Saturday, beginning at 10:30 a.m. on Main Street near the Belle Plaine Museum. The event is sponsored by the Belle Plaine Historical Society, who urges artists of all ages to “commemorate people, places and events from the area or Lincoln Highway history by drawing their images on the old Lincoln Highway.”

Savings bonds and Belle Plaine Bucks will be awarded for first, second and third place in each of five categories. Clark’s Soda Shop will give a free treat to each participant.
