NORTH PLATTE, Neb. — The annual&nbsp;&nbsp;Bloodhounds blood drive returns to North Platte for a 22nd year&nbsp;&nbsp;Wednesday, April 16, 2025.&nbsp;

Every spring since 2004, more than 2,500 donors have rolled up&nbsp;&nbsp;a sleeve during the Bloodhounds event, for a total of 2,446 pints&nbsp;&nbsp;of blood collected so far. This drive has also recruited more than&nbsp;500 new donors since the first year.&nbsp;&nbsp;

“It’s no mistake that this blood drive falls during National&nbsp;&nbsp;Volunteer Month,” said Amanda Wehnes, Account Manager, for&nbsp;&nbsp;Western Nebraska. “North Platte Noon Rotary members live by&nbsp;&nbsp;the words ‘Service Above Self’ year-round. By hosting this annual blood drive, they remind the&nbsp; rest of the community to be generous volunteer donors for those depending on blood&nbsp; transfusions.”&nbsp;

All presenting donors will have the choice between a Noon Rotary t-shirt or a Red Cross t-shirt. PLUS, get a chance at scoring a $5K gift card when you come give in April. (3 winners!) Boxed&nbsp; lunches will also be provided to all donors.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The Hot Sheets: April 10th, 2025

OGALLALA, Neb. &nbsp;— The Ogallala City Council held its regular bi-monthly meeting Tuesday evening, recognizing longtime city employees, proclaiming National Library Week, April 6–12. Mayor Steven Krajewski recognized&nbsp;Jason Curtis &amp; Tracy Hood&nbsp;for 25 years of service to the City of Ogallala in the Street Department.&nbsp; &nbsp;

The city is also preparing for the city’s first-ever drone show this Fourth of July weekend.&nbsp;

In light of anticipated fire restrictions this summer, the city has opted to replace its traditional Fourth of July fireworks display with a drone show. City Administrator Kevin Wilkins said there is an estimated 95% chance a fire ban will be in place by early July, based on consultations with local fire officials.&nbsp;

“We needed to make a decision,” Wilkins said. “We’re also about $7,000 short in fundraising for a fireworks show, and the council is prepared to underwrite that if needed.”&nbsp;

LISTEN TO FULL INTERVIEW WITH CITY ADMINISTRATOR&nbsp;

Instead, the city has contracted Fantasy Drone Shows of Norfolk for a performance on Saturday, July 5. The company is scheduled to perform a show in Colorado the night before and will return through Ogallala, reducing the cost of the typically $80,000 production to $25,000. The show will take place near the Soap Box Derby Track and the Western Diamond Baseball/Softball Complex.&nbsp;

In other business, the council reviewed a funding request from the Keith County Area Housing Development Corporation regarding the former Ogallala Middle School building, and Auditorium. Vacant for several years, the property is slated for redevelopment into a 44-unit apartment complex through an adaptive reuse project.&nbsp;

The corporation is seeking $460,000 in Local Option Municipal Economic Development Act (LB840) funds to address environmental issues, including asbestos, and to begin demolition work. Wilkins said once the building is abated and cleared, it will be transferred to a private developer for construction.&nbsp;

“We’re hoping to start demolition by late summer and move toward acquisition by midwinter,” Wilkins said, adding that the projected construction timeline is about 12 months.&nbsp;

The city and housing development corporation are also pursuing historic district designation for the site as part of the revitalization effort.&nbsp;

Registration is open for the annual Tyler Vanderheiden Memorial Run, set for May 31 at Cody Park in North Platte.

This race to raise awareness of mental health doubles as a fundraiser for Nebraska Game and Parks state park trails. It has drawn runners and walkers from all 50 states and 93 Nebraska counties, as well as two countries, in past years because of its message of hope.

Participants in the Memorial Run can run — or walk — this race in person at Cody Park,1899 US-83, or from anywhere around the globe.

The in-person event begins at 8:30 a.m. Central time, with race-day registration and packet pickup from 7:30 to 8:15 a.m. at the park pavilion.

Those choosing to run virtually must register by 4 p.m. Central time May 30 and may complete their race anytime and anywhere between May 24-31.

Register for the event at&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://links-1.govdelivery.com/CL0/https:%2F%2Fwww.platteriverfitness.com%2Fpublichealth%3Futm_medium=email%26utm_source=govdelivery/1/0100019616d1f585-1ba8795e-cf71-4058-8f9c-88f7d2bfaa95-000000/IOWcOH-Zv8r46TkYR-mCvzPwGu7GfpawZuCYpUg38G8=399">PlatteRiverFitness.com/PublicHealth</a>.

5K, 10K, and half-marathon races are a dime a dozen. But the Vanderheiden Memorial Run offers participants the choice between a 2- or 5-mile distance.

These mileages are great for beginners, the 2-mile race being just long enough to invigorate someone on a new health journey. The 5-mile inches participants closer to a challenge goal: Entering a 10K or half-marathon.

Both distances take advantage of the relationship between physical health and mental health. Exercise releases feel-good chemicals that can improve your energy and mood, reduce stress and improve your quality of life.

This race was started by the Vanderheiden family after the loss of their son, Tyler, to suicide. In his honor, they started the memorial run in conjunction with the Platte River Fitness Series in 2020.&nbsp;

The race began with the intention of being a space for healing and support for those who struggle with mental health or know someone who has. Those who run it help break the silence on suicide awareness and ensure those who feel alone can see a community of support.

“This run unites us all by lighting a path for all who may be struggling,” said Shannon Vanderheiden, Tyler’s mom. “Join us. Run fast or slow, but with your whole heart. And share in the memory of Tyler and others who are no longer with us but, in their remembrance, can be a beacon of hope.”

This year, proceeds from the race will benefit the 1.8-mile Fort Kearny Hike-Bike Trail at Fort Kearny State Recreation Area.

This trail is part of a 13.1-mile trail system to Cottonmill Park in Kearney. The portion maintained by Fort Kearny crosses both channels of the Platte River, and its south bridge is a popular spot for viewing sandhill cranes during the spring migration. This natural spectacle brings together people from around the world, just as the memorial run does.

“We are incredibly thankful the Vanderheidens continue to support trail improvements within our park system,” said Jeff Fields, parks division administrator at Nebraska Game and Parks. “Because of their support, we are able to maintain or improve trails, which are truly valued by our park guests.”

All proceeds donated this year will be matched by Recreational Trails Program grant funding — doubling the race’s impact.

The memorial run always offers a themed T-shirt as part of the race registration package. New this year: A line of shirts with the words “You matter” emblazoned across the front.

These shirts, available in youth, women’s and men’s sizes, can be purchased from the online storefront at&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://links-1.govdelivery.com/CL0/http:%2F%2FTylerVanderheidenMemorial.com%2Fstore.%3Futm_medium=email%26utm_source=govdelivery/1/0100019616d1f585-1ba8795e-cf71-4058-8f9c-88f7d2bfaa95-000000/vcIBpbU3xrEqom2u7JWeUVm60GUAbpIi9aG8CJ0sIHU=399">TylerVanderheidenMemorial.com/store.&nbsp;</a>No race registration required.

April 8, 2025 (Lexington, Neb.) – The Dawson Public Power District Board of Directors held its April meeting, marking a significant transition and outlining plans for future infrastructure investments.

The meeting featured a heartfelt farewell to retiring General Manager Gwen Kautz, who served the district for 29 years, including 13 as General Manager. A round of applause filled the board room as Board President Dan Muhlbach expressed gratitude for Kautz’s dedicated service. The newly appointed General Manager, Alyssa Clemsen Roberts, joined the board and staff in recognizing Kautz's contributions.

The Board dedicated considerable time to discussing both current and future infrastructure needs and updates essential for enhancing reliability, capacity, work efficiency and safety for Dawson PPD’s customers. These projects may be financed through bonds, enabling the District to distribute the costs over several years and reduce the impact on current ratepayers.

The Hot Sheets: April 8th, 2025

April 7, 2025 (Lexington, Neb.)&nbsp;&nbsp;— Troopers with the Nebraska State Patrol have arrested one person after a pursuit in southern Nebraska Sunday night.

At approximately 9:00 p.m. Sunday, NSP was notified that a Ram pickup had fled an attempted traffic stop by the Dawson County Sheriff’s Office. About ten minutes later, a trooper located the vehicle as it was traveling southbound on Road 426, south of the I-80 Darr interchange.

The trooper attempted a traffic stop and the driver initially came to a stop. The driver then accelerated and fled southbound. The vehicle continued on county roads before eventually turning southbound on Highway 283. Prior to reaching Highway 6, the driver entered the driveway of a residence and fled on foot. He was quickly apprehended by the trooper and a Gosper County deputy.

The driver, identified as Gustavo Diaz Rodriquez, 39, of Morgan City, Louisiana, was arrested for flight to avoid arrest, willful reckless driving, obstructing a peace officer, resisting arrest, and driving under the influence of alcohol. He was lodged in Dawson County Jail.
