LAINEY WILSON GETTING A HIGHWAY NAMED AFTER HER

LAINEY WILSON GETTING A HIGHWAY NAMED AFTER HER

Baskin, Louisiana had a grand total of 210 people living there in the 2020 census. It would have had at least one more, but the town’s most famous resident, Lainey Wilson, left to make a name for herself in Nashville several years back. Now that that mission is accomplished, her hometown is honoring her. Last week, the Mayor of the Village of Baskin, George Curtis, announced they’d be naming a portion of Louisiana Highway 15 in Franklin Parish the “Lainey Wilson Highway.” Over the next few months, the town will install six signs in recognition of Wilson and her accomplishments. A ceremony will also be held at some point in the coming months to celebrate the official unveiling of the new signage, which both the country star and her family have been invited to.
