What's new in Plattsmouth?

I have lived in Plattsmouth for almost 20 years. I have always been under the impression that it is, what is commonly known as, a "bedroom community." Most folks who live here actually work in Omaha or Council bluffs. While that is, for the most part a true statement, it is by no means a "sleepy" little town.

Its population in 2005 was just over 7,000 (48% male 52% female). Median age of 33, median income of almost 40,000 and median home value of $91,900. In other words, Plattsmouth is a typical smallish Midwest town. (All info from PlattsmouthChamber.org)

While visiting the Plattsmouth Chamber of Commerce website getting this information, I found some of the other events coming up. On Saturday, October 5, 2007 is "Cruisin' Main" (First Friday in October) where car enthusiasts come from four counties to the Show ‘n Shine Car Show. From my recollection, traffic is re-routed for the day and car buffs can show their prized possessions. Here is a picture form last years show taken from he Chamber website.

Come on down the first Saturday in October for the fun!!
