December 31, 2008: Happy New Year!

This coming year will prove to be a good one for the Wheat Growers Hotel. Momentum is gaining with the tour of the Hotel on Dec. 17 by the Nebraska Lt. Governor, Rick Sheehy, Heritage Nebraska Executive Director, J.L. Schmidt and Nebraska Lied Main Street Director, Elizabeth Chase. Followed by a letter (see attachment) to the Governor, Senators and Warren Buffett!! Letter to Nebraska Governor

The Hotel was in many newspapers this past week thanks to a University of Nebraska at Lincoln journalism student, Jenifer Calandra. Omaha’s Star Herald Article

ConAgra based in Omaha. Since their first bag of flour (WHEAT) was sold in 1867, ConAgra Foods has grown from a small Nebraska company into one of America’s largest food companies. This would be a GREAT win-win for ConAgra (in marketing . . . “Honoring the Wheat Growers of America” and the Hotel (getting restored!). Another corporation is Kraft (makers of Wheat Thins!!) People in more than 150 countries choose Kraft products and many of those products are made from WHEAT!!
