  • Fall 2017 LINCOLN LUTHERAN 2016-2017 ANNUAL REPORT
    Warrior fall 2017 LINCOLNN LUTHERANe 2016-2017w sANNUAL REPORT Dear Warrior Family and Friends, THANK you for your support and prayers through the past school year. Thank you for sending your children to Lincoln Lutheran and thank you for your generous support through volunteering and financial support. The last year saw an increase in the number of students, many hours of volunteering that allowed events to happen, and a very successful year of financial support. A few of the successes during the past year: • Large attendance for Grandparent’s Day • Successful and fun golf tournament • Over 800 in attendence for all Lutheran School chapel during National Lutheran Schools Week • Large attendance and financial support through the annual Gala • Great start to the Now Through Eternity campaign resulting in: o Growth in scholarship endowments o Additional debt reduction o Tuition increase for 2017-18 is the lowest since 2001 o Construction of a multi-use building will begin in September 2017 The one question that I am frequently asked is “How can you ask people for money?” To tell you the truth it is not hard at all when you believe in the product you are “selling”. I believe in Lincoln Lutheran and the Christ-centered education received by students. My job is to “plant the seed” by telling the story and the Holy Spirit does the work in the hearts of people that hear the story and experience Lincoln Lutheran. My prayer for this next school year is to meet more of the special people that make Lincoln Lutheran what it is today and together we can continue to make a difference in the lives of young men and women, Today, Tomorrow, and Forever.

    2011 ANNUAL REPORT LINCOLn’s FUTURE LINCObuildingLN CHAMBER OF COMMERCE 2011 ANNUAL REPORT CHAMBER OF COMMERCE CONVENTION & VISITORS BUREAU PARTNERSHIP FOR ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT A LOOK BACK... TONN OSTERGARD, CRETE CARRIER CORP. 2011 CHAIR Lincoln Chamber of Commerce Members: Thank you for the honor and pleasure of serving as your Chairman in 2011. I anticipated it was going to be an exciting year but I’m not sure I appreciated the extent of what we were to experience. Starting the year with Steve Forbes as keynote at our annual meeting set the appropriate tone. What a great event. The year that followed lived up to Mr. Forbes’ free enterprise rallying cry. We stayed busy and provided leadership on several key projects such as CIR reform, the Talent & Innovation package of legislative bills, the Guardians of Freedom Airshow, funding for roads, Nebraska Innovation Campus, and another sold-out Federal Fly-Back event in Ashland. The Chamber is perpetual motion – always on the move and always working on something to help improve our community. We even managed to develop a new program to support internships. TalentLNK helped 30 employers and over 100 interns get better acquainted with Lincoln and hopefully encourage them to stay in our great city. I’m proud to have been a part of keeping Lincoln’s momentum going. You can just look at the Lincoln skyline in the now famous crane photo commissioned by the Chamber to see the progress. We are fortunate to have a great professional staff and actively engaged members and leaders. We are well respected as business advocates in Nebraska among elected officials and in our collation with the Omaha and State Chambers.
