Officers, County Consuls & Staff

Dedication. Passion.

The Iowa Lincoln Highway Association relies on volunteers to serve as officers and consuls.  Each of the 13 counties in Iowa is to be represented by a volunteer county consul.  Currently there are county consul openings in Clinton and Pottawattamie Counties.  If you live in either of these counties, please contact Mary Helen Preston, Preston, President to volunteer.

Officers are elected from the membership for the officers of President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer.
