This Thursday night, Lincoln gathers for a powerful Overdose Awareness and Remembrance Event at the CenterPointe WellBeing Garden — a solemn chance to honor lives lost. Meanwhile, July’s record-breaking rain drenched the city with nearly seven inches, while the Carpet Land baseball team capped off a perfect season with a state championship sweep. In other community highlights: a funeral procession honored the late Crete Police Chief, kids cooled off at hydrant parties, and young athletes battled it out in the Railyard Rims tournament. Politically, independent Senate hopeful Dan Osborn rallied supporters, and student athletes from Nebraska Wesleyan helped UNL freshmen move in — all while building momentum for the new school year. It’s a town pulsing with emotion, action, and everyday resilience.
