The Hot Sheets: October 11th, 2024

North Platte Post/Sandhills Post&nbsp;

Sutherland, Neb. - Around 30 residents of Sutherland gathered at the American Legion Hall on S. Maple Street on Thursday to celebrate Lasting Legacies, hosted by the Mid-Nebraska Community Foundation. The event featured a pulled pork sandwich meal, live music from Sutherland Rascal Martinez, and a presentation celebrating legacies created in Sutherland.&nbsp;

Opening remarks were made by Mid-Nebraska Community Foundation president Dan O'Neill before passing the microphone over to Mid-Nebraska Community Foundation Executive Director Eric Seacrest who hosted a 25-minute presentation highlighting different legacies that have occurred in Sutherland whether it's grant money to the school system, scholarships for students and wrapping up the presentation telling the life of John Rusell Applegate and his grant created following his passing 2003 that benefits teachers and education.&nbsp;

The Mid-Nebraska Community Foundation serves 12 counites&nbsp;(Arthur, Custer, Dawson, Frontier, Hayes, Hooker, Keith, Lincoln, Logan, McPherson, Perkins, &amp; Thomas). During the presentation, Seacrest mentioned that the Sutherland School Foundation has received well over $20,000 in funds to benefit the school system.&nbsp;

Students in the region have plenty of opportunities to earn scholarships to help cover schooling. Over $25,000 in scholarship money was awarded to students in 15 awards.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The Mid-Nebraska Community Foundation has awarded over 151 grants totaling over $300,000 for education. Earlier this year, the Mid-Nebraska Community Foundation awarded a grant to Hershey Public Schools which used the funds to bring in Justin Matott who is an anti-bullying advocate.&nbsp;&nbsp;

The John Russell Applegate&nbsp;for Teachers Training and Support Grant was created after the passing of John Russell Applegate in 2003. After his passing, he left around $2 million to the Mid-Nebraska Community Foundation which created grant funds for education, teachers training, and support.&nbsp;Over the last 20 years, $2.5 million has been awarded in the form of grants or scholarships.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Last year, the community foundation awarded over $300,000 in Betterment grants. Many grants/scholarships are open but get the application quickly as there are deadlines.

The Hot Sheets: October 10th, 2024

North Platte Post/Sandhills Post/Panhandle Post

Paxton, Ne – If you’ve driven through the small town of
Paxton in Keith County this summer, you may have noticed multiple seed corn
signs south of Highway 30 on the west side of town south of town. That ground
near the Paxton Schools Bus Barn is owned by the Paxton Consolidated School
District and used to be farmed by local farmers in the area…until last year. The POST spoke with Paxton Consolidated Schools Industrial Arts Teacher Corey Turner and Sophomore Landon Drews in a sit down recently. 

Mr. Turner said that Paxton Superintendent Del Dack had come to him two years ago, "he asked me if the FFA chapter would like to farm the ground down by the Schools Barn along Highway 30. I thought it'd be an opportunity for a kid. I had a senior year plant wheat the first year, and then spring of last year I went to Landon to ask of his interest. Then last fall he went to school board and they approved him to go ahead with it and he started getting the field, cleaned up. He's gone way beyond what I thought was gonna happen with it."

Landon Drews is a sophomore at Paxton, he was only a
Freshman when he was asked about taking on this FFA project. Drews went before the Paxton School Board last fall to find out if he could get sponsors to help him plant his corn crop. He say's that was a big part of this FFA project. "&nbsp; I think that part was the most important, getting in contact that was pretty easy to do. I know most of the guys around here, you call one guy and say hey would you like to be a part of the Paxton FFA and support us and they just all wanted to be part of it. They had no worries about it. We have six different dealers that helped support us so we had Channel, DeKalb, Golden Harvest, Becks, Hoegemeyer, and Pioneer. Hi-Line Coop sprayed the corn and Harden Agency insured the crop from hail over the summer." Drews says it took them 5 1/2 hours plant that little peice of land because every time you went out, you had to come back and clean out the seed boxes on the planter.

In all it’s about 10 acres of dryland corn Drews and his
volunteers planted, Mr. Turner has used Landon’s project to teach others in his
class about putting a crop in the ground and tending to it, "I was able to take my students down. All of our FFA members got to go down and they helped clean out the planter and they got to ride in the tractor. We talked to different different dealers and they told them about the different varieties of seeds that they were putting in. So I mean that day right there was worth it to me just to get those other kids who don’t have the experience that Landon does. They don’t have the knowledge that he does in farming, and now they got some of that experience and knowledge firsthand.

On Wednesday, October 30th, Drews plans to
harvest his crop. Claas, Nebraska Harvest Center, in Ogallala is donating a combine to come pick the corn. Mr. Turner said the day will be a fun filled day for the entire Paxton School system. Elementary kids plan to come watch part of the day, his FFA and agriculture students plan to help also. Landon has also reached out to locals in the community who are donating hamburger which they cook burgers for the kids that day at the harvest site.&nbsp;

Mr. Turner says after the crop is out they plan to mill some
of the corn for feed that they’ll use to feed 3 cows the FFA tends too over the
winter, and likely they’ll put the cows out on the stocks over the winter.

You can see a video of Landon’s FFA project here, and listen to a full podcast between Corey Turner and Landon Drews with Derek Beck below on our Kubota Podcast.

Paxton FFA student helps turn school land into real working corn test plot (VIDEO)

October 9, 2024 (North Platte, Neb.)&nbsp;&nbsp;— Troopers with the Nebraska State Patrol, with assistance from the Dawson County Sheriff’s Office, has arrested three people following a pursuit and search near Gothenburg on Tuesday.

At approximately 1:40 p.m. Tuesday, troopers were notified that a Kia Soul was being sought in connection with a stolen property investigation in Lexington. A trooper then saw the vehicle on Interstate 80 headed westbound. The trooper attempted a traffic stop near mile marker 219. The vehicle began to slow down, but then accelerated and fled at a high rate of speed. The trooper initiated a pursuit.

The Kia fled westbound, with speeds exceeding 100 miles per hour. The driver exited I-80 at the Gothenburg interchange and began traveling north into town. The trooper discontinued the pursuit out of concern for public safety. A short time later, another trooper saw the same vehicle traveling westbound on Highway 30. Another pursuit began and the vehicle fled northbound on Road 409, west of Gothenburg. The pursuit continued until the vehicle came to a stop in a field several miles northeast of town. The two occupants then fled on foot.

Troopers and deputies utilized drones, an NSP K9, and an NSP Aircraft to search the area. The two subjects were eventually located on a nearby farmstead and were taken into custody.

The driver, Steven Conner, 37, of Omaha, was arrested for flight to avoid arrest, willful reckless driving, obstructing a peace officer, criminal mischief, numerous traffic violations, and outstanding warrants. The passenger, Skyanne Christensen, 24, of Omaha, was arrested for obstructing a peace officer, criminal mischief, and an outstanding warrant. Troopers discovered that a third occupant has been dropped at a farmhouse just west of Gothenburg. That person, Kayla Tatum, 29, of Omaha, was located walking along Highway 30 and arrested for obstructing a peace officer.

All three were lodged in Dawson County Jail.

A short time later, another trooper saw the same vehicle traveling westbound on Highway 30. Another pursuit began and the vehicle fled northbound on Road 409, west of Gothenburg. The pursuit continued until the vehicle came to a stop in a field several miles northeast of town. The two occupants then fled on foot.Troopers and deputies utilized drones, an NSP K9, and an NSP Aircraft to search the area. The two subjects were eventually located on a nearby farmstead and were taken into custody.The driver, Steven Conner, 37, of Omaha, was arrested for flight to avoid arrest, willful reckless driving, obstructing a peace officer, criminal mischief, numerous traffic violations, and outstanding warrants. The passenger, Skyanne Christensen, 24, of Omaha, was arrested for obstructing a peace officer, criminal mischief, and an outstanding warrant. Troopers discovered that a third occupant has been dropped at a farmhouse just west of Gothenburg.

Southwest Nebraska Public Health Department

Southwest Nebraska Public Health Department (SWNPHD) has received reports of two more cases of disease from insect bites - a third case of West Nile Virus (WNV) from a mosquito bite and one case of tularemia from a tick bite. According to the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), Nebraska has seen more tularemia cases than usual this fall.

“We are still seeing insect-related diseases in the health district,” explains Melissa Propp, Clinic Manager at SWNPHD. “It is a good idea to continue using bug spray until the first hard freeze, and use permethrin on tents and camping gear to prevent tick bites.”

SWNPHD worked with Nebraska Department of Health and Humans Services (DHHS) doing tick drags over the summer&nbsp;to help identify which ticks are living in the health district. Tick dragging is a method for collecting ticks in areas that are likely to have ticks, such as woods, tall grasses, or weeds. The most common type of tick in southwest Nebraska is the American Dog Tick.&nbsp; These ticks are known to carry Tularemia and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever.

Tularemia is caused by a bacteria that gets into the body when someone is bitten by an infected tick. It can also be spread by contact with infected animals like rabbits or rodents. The symptoms are fever, headache, swollen glands in the armpit or groin, and skin ulcers at the site of the bite. Tularemia can be life-threatening, but most infections are treated successfully with antibiotics. Contact your healthcare provider right away if you develop symptoms after being bitten by a tick.

More information on tularemia may be found at cdc.gov/tularemia or call SWNPHD at 308-345-4223. Southwest Nebraska Public Health Department serves Chase, Dundy, Frontier, Furnas, Hayes, Hitchcock, Keith, Perkins, and Red Willow counties.&nbsp; Information can also be found on SWNPHD’s Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok.

OMAHA, NEBRASKA — During Fire Prevention Week (October 6-12), the American Red Cross of Nebraska reminds everyone home fires claim more lives in a typical year than all natural disasters combined. To help protect your household, test your smoke alarms each month and practice your escape plan until everyone can get out in less than two minutes.

“Fire now travels faster through homes, largely due to popular open-concept layouts and synthetic materials,” said Josh Murray, Red Cross of Nebraska spokesperson. “The sooner an alarm alerts you to a fire, the sooner you can get out. This is critical because fire experts say you may have less than two minutes to escape a burning home before it’s too late.”

Tips for creating your home fire escape plan and practicing your 2-minute drill:

This is critical because fire experts say you may have less than two minutes to escape a burning home before it’s too late.”Tips for creating your home fire escape plan and practicing your 2-minute drill:<ul>
 <li>Everyone in your household should know&nbsp;two&nbsp;ways to escape from each room in your home.</li><li>Smoke is dangerous. Get low and go!</li><li>Decide where to meet once you get outside. Select a meeting spot at a safe distance away from your home, such as a neighbor’s home or landmark like a specific tree in your front yard, where everyone knows to meet.</li><li>Get out and stay out. Never go back inside for people, pets or things.</li><li>If a fire starts, you may have less than&nbsp;two minutes&nbsp;to get to safety. Time your fire drill and find out: what’s your escape time?</li><li>While practicing your escape plan, teach children what a smoke alarm sounds like. Talk about fire safety and what to do in an emergency.</li>
 </ul>Smoke alarm safety:<ul>
 <li>Place smoke alarms on each level of your home, including inside and outside bedrooms and sleeping areas.</li><li>In addition to testing your alarms once a month, change the batteries at least once a year, if your model requires it.</li><li>Also check the manufacturer’s date of your smoke alarms. If they’re 10 years or older, they need to be replaced because the sensor becomes less sensitive over time. Follow the manufacturer’s instructions.</li>

🎤Forward Ever: American Red Cross communication manager Logan Wright

(October 7, 2024) Lexington, Neb. – At the October 2nd meeting, Dawson Public Power District’s board learned that its irrigation customers experienced less load management than in previous years.

Of the 66 hours of possible irrigation control, Dawson PPD’s anytime option irrigation customers averaged 50 hours of irrigation load management for the 2024 growing season. Most irrigation customers subscribe to the anytime rate, which means they allow their irrigation well to be shut off at any time and on any day of the week. By working together, Dawson PPD and its irrigation customers help keep overall wholesale power costs low.

Dawson PPD’s electrical grid peaked in demand at 209 megawatts in 2024. In 2023, it was 252 MW.

“At Dawson PPD, we take a unique approach to our irrigation load management to benefit our customers,” said Cole Brodine, Manager of Engineering. “Our Board votes on a certain load threshold at the beginning of the irrigation year. This number is determined by historical data and wholesale power costs. When electrical use increases on a summer control day, we slowly shut off irrigation wells to keep Dawson PPD’s overall electrical demand under the threshold. As electrical usage decreases in the evening, we start to slowly turn irrigation wells back on to allow load up to the threshold or until our wholesale provider, Nebraska Public Power District, cancels load management for the day.”

Safety and Loss Prevention Coordinator Dean Kunkee provided a summary of Dawson PPD’s Loss Analysis for 2023. Animals and birds caused about $42,800 in damage to the District’s substations in 2023.
