The Hot Sheets: June 2, 2025

North Platte, Neb. - May 27, 2025 - Raegyn Beachner lives for the Buffalo Bill Rodeo in North Platte. The 14-year-old cowgirl, a resident of Hershey,&nbsp; volunteers at the rodeo, carrying sponsor flags during the grand entry of each night of rodeo, and saddling, unsaddling and warming up horses that the rodeo queens ride.&nbsp; Beachner has been helping at the rodeo the past four years, but she's been attending it since she was a baby.

The daughter of Ashley and Tylan Gayman and Levi Beachner, her grandparents, Tom and Shelli Arensdorf, live near Hershey. Raegyn and her family lived near Parsons, Kan., but every summer they would come back to Nebraska for the week of rodeo. Raegyn and her mom moved to Hershey seven years ago.

State rodeo queens from all over the country come to North Platte for the Buffalo Bill Rodeo, and Beachner saddles their horses and warms them up, so they are ready to ride. Marvin Mueller, Sutherland, supplies many of the saddle horses the queens ride.

She's had the chance the last two years to carry a flag on horseback in the grand entry, which is what she loves. She also loves meeting all the queens, including Miss Rodeo Nebraska and Miss Rodeo America, who visit North Platte for the rodeo. "I get to meet a bunch of new queens, and I get to meet the professional rodeo athletes, too," she said.

The sponsor flag staging area is close to where the cowboys and cowgirls warm up their horses, so Beachner has rubbed elbows with big-name barrel racers like world champions Hailey Kinsel and Fallon Taylor and multiple-time National Finals Rodeo qualifiers like Emily Beisel and Stevi HIllman.

Beachner comes from a long line of rodeo volunteers. Her grandma has been on the Buffalo Bill Rodeo committee for twenty years, and competed in high school and professional rodeo as well.&nbsp;"She lives for it," Arensdorf said, of her granddaughter. She loves being around horses. "She will spend hours and hours and hours with the horses, combing, petting, bathing, walking and riding them."&nbsp; &nbsp;"I love having a personal friend," Beachner says. "I talk to them, and they're always there when you need them."&nbsp;

The Buffalo Bill Rodeo takes place June 18-21 in North Platte at the Wild West Arena. Shows start each night at 7:30 pm.&nbsp;Tickets range in price from $11-$24 and can be purchased online at NebraskalandDays.com, at the NebraskalandDays office, and at the gate.&nbsp;&nbsp;

LOVING RODEO: Buffalo Bill Rodeo volunteer loves chance to volunteer at rodeo, work with horses

NORTH PLATTE, Neb. (AP) — The City of North Platte, in partnership with Keep North Platte and Lincoln County Beautiful, is encouraging residents to participate in a weeklong community cleanup effort running from June 2 through June 9.

As part of the initiative, roll-off dumpsters will be available free of charge for in-town residential customers at two locations: the southeast parking lot of Centennial Park and the north end of the parking lot at the City of North Platte Public Service Building, located at 1402 North Jeffers.

The cleanup program is intended to assist residents in maintaining their properties and promoting a cleaner community. Residents can dispose of items such as furniture, small appliances, and miscellaneous junk. However, certain items are prohibited, including commercial building materials, yard waste, hazardous materials, asbestos, tires, concrete, electronics, and refrigerated appliances.

“This program gives residents a great opportunity to clean up their properties while following the rules to ensure we can continue offering it in the future,” said Mona Anderson, Executive Director of Keep North Platte and Lincoln County Beautiful. “Together, we can make North Platte a cleaner, greener, more beautiful place to live, work and play.”

The dumpsters are strictly for residential use and will be monitored regularly. Anyone found dumping prohibited materials or leaving items on the ground outside the dumpsters may face charges. The city will service and empty the bins as needed.

Due to past misuse, the number of dumpsters has been reduced this year to improve oversight and minimize illegal dumping.

“Last year this program was very successful, but there was some misuse,” said Steve Mentzer, Public Service Director. “We want this program to be effective. It discourages illegal dumping and promotes a beautiful community.”

In addition to the cleanup program, residents can dispose of yard waste such as tree limbs and grass clippings at the North Platte Transfer Station Monday through Saturday from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. Hazardous waste is accepted at the Hazardous Waste Facility at 1308 North Sycamore on the second and fourth Thursdays of each month from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. Electronics can be recycled at ABC Recycling for a per-pound fee, and tires are accepted at the Transfer Station for a fee.

NORTH PLATTE, Neb. — The North Platte Stockyards Sale Barn hosted its largest Catalog Horse Sale to date on Tuesday, May 27, drawing a full house of buyers and sellers and moving 238 head through the ring.

The top-selling horse of the night fetched $14,750 — a 7-year-old registered gelding known for his ranch experience, gentle disposition and striking grey coat.

A 5-year-old Draft Cross gelding, previously named Horse of the Year on the local ranch rodeo circuit, followed closely at $14,000. Organizers described him as “dog gentle” and well-suited for ranch work or recreational riding.

Horses with arena credentials also proved popular. A 15-year-old palomino gelding trained in team roping sold for $13,250, while a 17-year-old red roan gelding brought in $10,000.

The loose horse market remained strong, with the top loose horse — a shapely palomino gelding — selling for $4,900.

The top five horses averaged $12,300, while the top 10 averaged $10,585.

"This was our biggest sale to date, and demand was strong from start to finish," the Stockyards said in a statement. "We appreciate all of our buyers and sellers who made it such a successful event."

The next Catalog Horse Sale at North Platte Stockyards is scheduled for Tuesday, July 29.

Stories from the Pecos League: A North Platte 80s Season Preview with manager Todd Everleth

LAKE McCONAUGHY, Neb. — Cooler temperatures aren’t stopping the bite at Lake McConaughy as anglers report success with walleye, bass and wipers across the reservoir, according to Patrick Schnell, superintendent with Nebraska Game and Parks for Lake McConaughy and Lake Ogallala.

Surface water temperatures near the dam were recorded at 54 degrees Fahrenheit Tuesday morning, with air temperatures expected to stay in the 60s through the week before warming up by the weekend.

Fishing Report
Walleye are hitting live bait at depths of 12 to 25 feet. White bass and wipers are also biting well along the north shoreline, particularly when winds push into the north bays.
Good-sized smallmouth bass have been reported on the rocky points along the south side of the lake and near the face of the dam.

Lake Conditions
Lake McConaughy is currently at 3,236.6 feet, equating to 1,012,800 acre-feet, or 58.1% of capacity. For daily updates, visit <a href="https://cnppid.com/lake-river-data">CNPPID’s Lake &amp; River Data</a>.

Boat Ramp Access
Boat ramps currently available include:

Fire Safety
Campfires are permitted at both Lake McConaughy and Lake Ogallala, but safety rules remain in effect. Fires must be contained in designated fire rings no larger than three feet in diameter. Open flames should never be left unattended and must be fully extinguished before leaving the area.

Fireworks are strictly prohibited at both State Recreation Areas (SRAs), and their sale and use remain banned in Keith County.

Camping Reminder
Camping reservations are now open. Beach camping may be reserved up to 30 days in advance, while modern campgrounds with electrical hookups can be booked up to 180 days out.

Lake Mac Report: Cool Temps, Hot Bite as Summer Nears

By Sandhills Post/North Platte Post Staff

NORTH PLATTE, Neb. — One of Lincoln County’s most anticipated annual fundraisers is back. The Grape &amp; Sizzle event, organized by the Lincoln County Cattle Women's Association, will take place Friday, June 6, at Venue 304 in downtown North Platte. The evening combines gourmet food, wine tasting, and lively auctions to raise funds for local nonprofits.

Tracy Olson, president of Grape &amp; Sizzle, and board secretary Amanda White joined the Sandhills Post this week to share details about the event, which has supported Lincoln County for over two decades.

“Our slogan is ‘Beef for a Cause,’ and our mission is to promote the beef industry while giving back to local nonprofits,” Olson said.

This year, three nonprofit recipients were selected through a competitive process:

“We’re thrilled to support organizations doing such meaningful work in our community,” White said.

Guests can expect a gourmet lineup featuring steak and feta salad, sweet and spicy meatballs in puff pastry, Parmesan-rimmed sliders, a cheese and olive station, a dessert bar, and an extensive wine selection.

“Our food and wine offerings are always a hit — people look forward to indulging and enjoying the atmosphere,” White added.

Tickets for the event are $60 per person and include food and wine tasting. They are nearly sold out, with only about 30 remaining. Tickets can be purchased at <a href="http://www.grapeandsizzle.com">www.grapeandsizzle.com</a> or through the Grape &amp; Sizzle Facebook page.

The evening features both silent and live auctions. Highlights include:

“It’s such a fun night, and the auctions get exciting — especially when people really want something,” Olson said.

This year’s event will also honor Tom and Linda Hansen, who started Grape &amp; Sizzle more than 20 years ago. Tom, a former state senator and past president of the Nebraska Cattlemen’s Association, launched the fundraiser as part of his mid-year convention. Linda Hansen chaired the event for over a decade.

“We are so grateful to Tom and Linda for their vision and commitment to this event,” Olson said.

With 18 platinum sponsors — the most ever — this year’s Grape &amp; Sizzle is shaping up to be one of the biggest yet.

Doors open at 5:30 p.m., with festivities running through 8:30 p.m. For more information or to get involved, visit <a href="http://www.grapeandsizzle.com">grapeandsizzle.com</a>.

UNL Wheat Variety Tour to Stop in Grant on June 10

LISTEN TO FULL INTERVIEW WITH KEVIN WILKINS

OGALLALA, Neb. — The Ogallala City Council met on May 27 to address a variety of topics, from nuisance abatement efforts and utility maintenance to community event funding and public works updates.

City Manager Kevin Wilkins joined Sandhills Post's Derek Beck to recap the meeting, highlighting several key actions and discussions that took place during the evening session.

The meeting began with a light consent agenda, which included approval of claims, a gas sitter’s license for Adrian Urich, and renewal of the master plumber’s license for Dan Heble.

During the public comment portion, Ed McLaughlin addressed the council with concerns about the appearance of properties across Ogallala, particularly emphasizing the issue of non-functioning or unlicensed vehicles. Wilkins said the discussion was respectful and informative.

“We talked about our nuisance abatement process, which we’re currently working on with the West Central Nebraska Development District,” Wilkins said. “The city is divided into 18 zones, and we’re actively assessing one of those areas now.”

Representatives from PeopleService also provided updates, including progress on the city’s meter replacement program and a surge in utility location requests, which have exceeded 500 this month. Wilkins noted that high locate volumes indicate active construction and community improvements.

A revised agreement with the Keith County Chamber of Commerce was also approved. The chamber manages Rendezvous Square, a downtown event space, and requested a reallocation of its $20,000 budget—increasing its management fee from $2,000 to $4,000 and reducing event programming funds to $16,000.

The council also approved a sewer disposal fee amendment, reducing the rate structure to $40 per 500 gallons dumped at the wastewater treatment facility, down from the previous 1,000-gallon threshold.

In another significant item, the council approved a five-year, $275,000 contract with Viking Industrial Painting to maintain the city’s water storage tanks.

“These tanks are critical infrastructure, and routine inspection and maintenance help us avoid major failures,” Wilkins explained.

The final item of the evening involved a $634 settlement to resident Michael Maxey for a curb stop repair dispute. While property owners are typically responsible for utility lines from the curb inward, Wilkins noted that this case involved extenuating circumstances. The council's decision may set a precedent for future utility-related claims.

Looking ahead, Wilkins mentioned that recent rains have led Keith County Commissioners to lift the burn ban, although the fireworks ban remains in place. He cautioned residents to remain vigilant despite the moisture.

“We’ve had just enough rain to make the grass grow—which means it could burn well in July,” Wilkins said.

Ogallala City Council Recaps May 27 Meeting: Nuisance Concerns, Utility Contracts, and Event Funding

NORTH PLATTE, Neb. — The Hall of Fame PRCA Buffalo Bill Rodeo is set to return to North Platte from June 18 through June 21, bringing four nights of high-level rodeo action — and a few key changes fans need to know.

This year, the rodeo will start at 7:30 p.m. each night, a shift from the long-standing 8:00 p.m. tradition. Buffalo Bill Rodeo Committee members Justin Thompson and Levi Fisher told Derek Beck of the North Platte Post that the earlier start is aimed at making the event more convenient and family-friendly.

“Pushing the start time up just a bit helps get folks home earlier and might help us avoid some of that late-night weather,” Thompson said. “We don’t like to talk about rain, but you know it can happen.”

The rodeo, a staple of Nebraskan tradition and part of Nebraskaland Days, is also upping the stakes in 2025. This year, the added purse money has increased from $6,000 to $10,000 per event, a significant jump aimed at attracting top-tier talent.

“That’s one of the biggest changes,” said Fisher. “It helps bring in some of the bigger names and just elevates the overall competition.”

Cowboys and cowgirls participating in the PRCA-sanctioned event are already taking note. While the exact performance schedules for top-ranked athletes aren’t set, fans can expect to see nationally known names like Stetson Wright, Coleman Proctor, and Rocker Steiner throughout the week.

“Every night is going to have someone in the top five or top 10,” Thompson said. “There’s no bad night at this rodeo.”

While Saturday night sold out last year, Fisher encouraged fans to take advantage of Wednesday and Thursday nights, which often feature high-caliber performances as athletes route through multiple national events.

“If you're looking for great competition without the weekend crowds, Wednesday and Thursday are hidden gems,” he said.

For early risers and die-hard rodeo fans, slack events begin at 8 a.m. on Wednesday and Thursday, offering even more opportunities to see top-tier rodeo action.

Tickets for the Buffalo Bill Rodeo are on sale now. For more information, visit <a href="https://www.nebraskalanddays.com">www.nebraskalanddays.com</a>.

Additionally, contact your health care provider to check you and your family's vaccination status against measles. If you have not had two doses of the measles/mumps/rubella (MMR) vaccine, talk to your health care provider or local health department right away.

Measles is an acute, highly contagious respiratory viral disease. Symptoms include fever, runny nose, cough, and rash. Although measles is usually considered a childhood disease, it can be contracted at any age. Children under the age of five, adults over the age of 20 years, nonimmune pregnant and immunocompromised people are at greatest risk of developing severe complications from measles. There is no specific treatment for measles.

The best way to protect yourself and your family against measles and other vaccine-preventable diseases is by immunization. Children should receive their first dose of measles vaccine between 12 and 15 months of age and another dose at four to six years of age. It is recommended that infants from six to 11 months old in Sheridan County receive an early dose of the MMR vaccine. A resident with only one dose of MMR should receive their second dose as soon as possible.

In the United States, the MMR vaccine is generally first given at 12 months of age, but is sometimes recommended for children as young as six months of age who are traveling internationally or could be exposed in a local outbreak. Any Nebraskan planning to travel, particularly internationally, needs to ensure they are up to date with their MMR vaccine. If you have not had two doses of the measles/mumps/rubella (MMR) vaccine, talk to your health care provider or local health department right away about getting caught up.&nbsp;The MMR vaccine is safe and 97% effective at preventing measles after two doses.

If you think that you are having symptoms of measles, isolate yourself from others and call your healthcare provider, emergency room, or urgent care BEFORE arriving to be tested.&nbsp;Do not arrive at a healthcare facility without giving advance notice unless it is a medical emergency.

Today on Sandhills Spotlight, Ogallala City Council Recap & Original Town Meeting Preview

NORTH PLATTE, Neb - A North Platte man already facing serious assault allegations is now facing additional domestic assault charges following a court appearance this week.

Nathan Creel, 29, appeared in Lincoln County Court on Tuesday for a new round of charges, separate from the first-degree assault case that landed him in custody last month.

Creel has been held at the Lincoln County Detention Center since April 16. That day, deputies responded to a call at the Lincoln Highway RV Park, located west of North Platte, where they found a woman with severe injuries, including swollen-shut eyes and visible bleeding from her nose and the side of her head.

He was arrested at the scene and charged with first-degree assault.

Now, Creel faces new allegations of domestic assault and is scheduled to return to Lincoln County Court next week for a preliminary hearing related to the new charges. He also continues to face proceedings in Lincoln County District Court connected to the original assault case.

No additional details about the new charges have been released at this time.

LINCOLN, Neb. — Twenty high school seniors from across Nebraska have been selected for a prestigious University of Nebraska–Lincoln program aimed at addressing a critical shortage of food animal veterinarians in the state.

The students were named to the second cohort of the Nebraska Elite 11 Veterinarian Program, a competitive initiative launched through a partnership between Gov. Jim Pillen and the university. The program seeks to develop a pipeline of skilled veterinarians committed to serving Nebraska’s livestock producers, particularly in rural communities.

“I’m excited for the futures of these students,” Pillen said in a statement. “They are pursuing a career path that is certainly in high demand. We need skilled veterinarians who can provide advice and services to Nebraska’s livestock producers. Their commitment to working in our rural communities will help ensure food security, now and into the future.”

The students selected for the program, listed by hometown, are:

The Elite 11 initiative is part of Nebraska’s broader strategy to strengthen rural health infrastructure and bolster the agricultural economy. Students in the program receive mentorship, educational support, and opportunities for hands-on experience in veterinary practice with a focus on food-producing animals.
