WHERE IN LCS IS THIS?
Week 1 of the summer scavenger hunt!

More on Lincoln County Schools, NC page!

WHERE IN LCS IS THIS?

Welcome to Week 1 of our summer scavenger hunt!

Study the two photo clues and see if you can identify this mystery location connected to Lincoln County Schools. Hidden at the location is a black LCS drawstring bag filled with LCS swag and a special prize package from this week's sponsors, The Timken Company and the Lincoln Economic Development Association.

The first person (or group) to find the bag gets to keep everything inside.

Found it? Here's what to do:

Take a selfie at the location holding the prize bag.
Email your photo to [email protected].
We'll verify the winner and share your photo on our social media pages.

Once the prize has been claimed, we'll reveal the location and share some interesting history and facts about this special place in Lincoln County Schools.

To keep the challenge fair, comments have been turned off so no one can give away the answer.

Ready. Set. Go.

Thank you to Timken and LEDA for sponsoring Week 1 of "Where in LCS is this?"

Tomorrow, the hunt begins.

For the next eight weeks, we'll be sending the Lincoln County community on a scavenger hunt unlike any we've done before.

Each Monday, we'll post two photo clues leading to a mystery location somewhere connected to Lincoln County Schools. Hidden at that location will be a black LCS drawstring bag filled with LCS swag and prizes from one of our community sponsors.

The first person (or group) to find it gets to keep everything inside.

Once the prize is found, we'll reveal the location and share some of the history and stories that make that place special to Lincoln County Schools.

Think you know LCS?

Watch our social media channels tomorrow at 10:30 a.m. for the first clues.

The countdown is on.

At Lincoln Economic Development Association, our work is only possible because of the incredible support of our stakeholders.

Last week, we had the privilege of hosting our Annual Stakeholders Event at Vesuvius Vineyards as a small token of appreciation for the businesses, organizations, and community leaders who invest in our mission and make our work possible.

Their financial support allows LEDA to recruit new industries, assist existing businesses with growth and expansion, provide valuable resources to small businesses, and champion efforts that strengthen the overall business climate of Lincoln County. Most importantly, these investments help improve the quality of life for our citizens by supporting job creation, economic opportunity, and a thriving community.

Economic development is truly a team effort, and we are grateful for each stakeholder who shares our vision for Lincoln County’s future. Thank you for your partnership, your confidence, and your commitment to making Lincoln County an exceptional place to live, work, and do business.
