The Lincoln Highway Beautification Project & Patriotic Plantings

The Lincoln Highway Beautification Committee, co-chaired by CCHA members Mary Lee Minor and Elaine Naples started with a patriotic vision, dating all the way back to the summer of 2025.

Their mission is to beautify a stretch of the historic Lincoln Highway in Bucyrus by planting red, white, and blue flowers.

These plantings will run from Family, Farm, and Home to Millenium Park in Downtown Bucyrus.
