"The Complete Package"

Though not a very large city, Lincoln is a friendly city with a fun night-life environment.

If it's family fun you're looking for, check out the Children's museum, Champion's Fun Center, or one of Lincoln's spectacular neighborhood parks.

If you're craving an exciting nightlife, check out Cappy's Hot Spot Bar & Grill on 48th & Hwy 2 for live rock music and the best food in town. The legendary Zoo Bar offers jazz and blues while Knickerbockers showcases local bands on a regular basis. The best karaoke can be found at JR's Down Under on sunday, tuesday, thursday and even saturday!

Lincoln is the home of Stars hockey, Saltdogs baseball and of course the one and only Nebraska Cornhuskers. Local softball and volleyball leagues can be joined almost year-round.
