Visiting Nebraska

Ogallala to Omaha, Nebraska's Interstate 80 is a major travel corridor for residents, visitors and travelers in and through the Cornhusker State. Located on America's great plains, Nebraska is a leading farming, ranching and agriculture production area for the US. North Platte is home to Union Pacific's Bailey Yard, the largest train yard in the world. Berkshire Hathaway, famous for it's CEO Warren Buffett, one of the world's wealthiest people, makes Omaha home. Outdoor enthusiasts will recognize retailer Cabela's, which is headquartered in Omaha. Lincoln, the state capital, is smaller than Omaha and boast the only state legislature that is nonpartisan.

Sports fans recognize University of Nebraska Cornhuskers, who compete in 14 different sports with 21 varsity teams. The NCAA Division 1-A Football team is arguably the most famous and popular for residents and alumni. The 2010 Husker Football schedule begins regular season play with two non-conference home games. Western Kentucky opens the season at Memorial Stadium on September 4th, and Idaho comes to town the week after. A match with Colorado wraps up the season at home November 26th.

The Best Western Crown Inn in Lincoln is an ideal location for travelers to the University of Nebraska. Conveniently located off I-80, close to UNL. The Best Western is also convenient to other Lincoln attractions like Folsom Zoo and the Lancaster Event Center. Make Best Western your choice when you travel to Lincoln for business or pleasure.

The Nebraska State Fair is held in Grand Island, about an hour and a half from Lincoln. The 2010 Nebraska State Fair is the 141st and is held August 27th through September 6th. Visitors see the best in livestock and agriculture along with top name entertainment. The 2010 concerts include Martina McBride, Mel Tillis and Josh Turner for starters. Enjoy the traditional exhibits, live entertainment, contests and the midway at the Nebraska State Fair - one of the best state fairs in the US.

Fall in Nebraska brings a lot of events and celebrations. Lincoln hosts the 10th Annual Lincoln Arts Festival in September. Hastings celebrates music at the Miles of Memories Country Music Fest. The 26th Annual Indian Summer Rendezvous will be held in Ogallala. Load up family and friends for a nice weekend away!

October Harvest also means celebrations of the local bounty. Enjoy homemade pie and fun in Kearney at the Archway Harvest Fair in early October. While you are there, make sure to enjoy the Archway – it is one of the highlighted locations in the book 1,000 Places To See Before You Die. The Best Western Inn of Kearney is ideal for travelers with affordable rates and clean, comfortable rooms.
