Central Nebraska Auto Club was recently awarded the “Outstanding Event” for communities 10,000 or larger by the Nebraska Tourism Commission. The event closed out the annual Nebraska Tourism Conference organized by the Nebraska Tourism Commission that was held in South Sioux City. The event celebrated its 35th year with six full days of activities for all ages, many of which saw record attendance. An estimated 35,000 people attended the event with more than 500 vehicles registered for the Saturday Show & Shine.
