The Hot Sheets: September 12th, 2023

North Platte/Sandhills Post News Director Canon Rath caught up with 4-H'er Ezri Bay and 4-H Youth Development Extension Educator Caitlyn Jacobson about the 4-H Dog Skillathon category.&nbsp;

NORTH PLATTE - 4-H is America's largest youth development program across the United States that helps learn skills that will last a lifetime. The age requirement for 4-H is the ages of 8-18. There are many different categories that 4-H'ers can participate in during their time in the program. A unique category is Dog Skillathon.&nbsp;

The Dog Skillathon contest is an opportunity that 4-H'rs can patriciate and test their knowledge of dogs. "It's a giant mess test and it's kind of interesting and so you walk in this big room and there's a whole bunch of tables with different activities," said 4-H'er Ezri Bay. "They hand you a test and you go to one of the tables and at each table there's like questions and photos that go with you questions and you have to answer those."&nbsp;

Dogs Skillathon has many different aspects during competition. If you would like to learn a more in-depth about the Dogs Skillathon and Bay's involvement with 4-H with the trio, check out the podcast linked above or <a href="https://4hfairbook.unl.edu/fairbookview.php/contests/43">click here.</a>

(Audio) 4-H Dogs Skillathon - Conversation with Caitlyn Jacobson and Ezri Bay

Professional barrel racer and motivational speaker Amberley Snyder will speak in Ogallala and North Platte in October.

Snyder is the subject of the Netflix movie, “Walk. Ride. Rodeo,” released in 2019. The biopic focuses on her journey leading up to and following a vehicle accident that left her paralyzed from the waist down.

The Mid-Plains Community College Student Life Department is organizing her visit to local communities.

The first presentation will be at 10 a.m. Oct. 23 at Ogallala High School, followed by a meet-and-greet with Snyder.

She will then speak at 1 p.m. Oct. 24 in the McDonald-Belton Theater on the North Platte Community College South Campus, 601 W. State Farm Rd, in North Platte. There is no meet-and-greet with the North Platte presentation.

Snyder fell in love with horses early in life and was barrel racing by the age of 7. She subsequently competed in junior and high school rodeos, winning multiple titles and awards.

Snyder qualified for the National High School Finals Rodeo in pole bending in 2009, her senior year of high school, and won the National Little Britches Rodeo Association All-Around Cowgirl World Championship.

She was on top of the world at that point but came crashing down in January of 2010. Snyder was on her way to the Denver Stock Show and Rodeo, driving through Sinclair, Wyo., when she looked down at her map and crossed the centerline.

Snyder attempted to get back into her lane but overcorrected and rolled her truck. She was ejected and slammed into a fence post, breaking her back.

She underwent five hours of emergency surgery and was told by her doctor that she would never regain use of or feeling in her legs.

Four months later, she was back on her horse. Eighteen months after her accident, Snyder returned to competing in rodeo.

In 2015, she was voted the fan exemption contestant at the world’s richest one day rodeo, RFD-TV’s The American. Snyder competed with the best in the industry and was just 0.6 seconds short of the winning time. She received a standing ovation from over 40,000 fans in the AT&amp;T Stadium in Arlington, Texas.

When “Walk. Ride. Rodeo.” came along, Snyder served as co-producer and her own stunt double. She also co-wrote the song, “Ride,” for the soundtrack and published a book by the same name, “Walk Ride Rodeo: A Story About Amberley Snyder.”

Today, Snyder continues to barrel race as part of the Women’s Professional Rodeo Association. She qualified for the Wilderness Circuit Finals in 2021 and 2022.

Snyder also travels the country sharing her story of triumph over tragedy and has become one of the most sought-after social influencers and motivational speakers in western sports.

Snyder’s presentations in Ogallala and North Platte are open to the public. Seating will be available on a first-come, first-served basis in both locations.

Tickets are required and nonrefundable. They must be purchased in advance as they will not be available at the events. Tickets are $10 each with the exception of those for MPCC students and employees who will be admitted free. FFA and other school organizations will also be admitted free with pre-registration.

Tickets are available by calling the MPCC Business and Community Education department at (308) 535-3678 and asking for Jeff Smeltzer or Mandy Brandes.

Ogallala Public Schools hosting a Community Budget Work Session on Monday

By Chabella Guzman, communications specialist, Panhandle Research Extension and Education Center

Feeding Nebraska communities and feeding the world with climate challenges facing agriculture producers was the underlying topic at this year’s annual Water and Crops Field Day at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL), West Central Research Extension and Education Center (WCREEC) in North Platte.&nbsp;

The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has been working with ag producers for decades on farming practices and, in 2022, began Climate-Smart Agriculture. USDA set three main goals: sustainably increasing productivity and income, increasing adaptation, and reducing greenhouse gas emissions.&nbsp;&nbsp;

“Many of our producers hear about it (Climate-Smart practices) but don’t know how quickly it’s growing,” said Kelly Bruns, director of the UNL West Central Research and Extension Center.&nbsp;

The field day featured a panel on Climate Smart Practices, and one of the speakers was Grant Keenan, director of cattle management at Walmart.&nbsp;

“Walmart has a huge commitment to not only the United States but to the world to help promote sustainable practices. To ensure nature is here for our kids and our grandkids, right, and we’re able to continue producing that food fiber and shelter that takes care of the world population,” Keenan said.&nbsp;

Walmart has invested in Sustainable Beef LLC, a $325 million beef processing facility in North Platte. It will be served by five feed yards in Nebraska, another four in Kansas, and one in Oklahoma in a 100-mile radius. The facility and feed yards are only a part of the company's Prime Pursuit Supply Chain. Walmart will be able to trace the beef back to its ranches of origin and aid them in regenerative practices, navigating funding and technical assistance.

In order for cattle to be part of the Prime Pursuit Supply chain, they need to be identified and tracked throughout their life. While the cattle are finished in the feed yards, most are grazed on ranges, cornstalks, and cover crops before being moved into area feedlots.&nbsp;

“At first, we really wanted to make sure that we controlled erosion. We didn’t want to have that wind blowing our high-dollar Nebraska dirt around. In a short period of time, we figured out, hey, these cattle can graze this, and there’s a way to pay for this (cover crops) in some years,” said John Schroeder, manager at Darr Feedlot in Cozad.

Schroeder has developed different cover crop cocktails with oats, wheat, turnips, radishes, and canola. They also used manure to put back some phosphorus and potassium. He said the traditional corn, soybean, and alfalfa rotations are working well but stressed every area is different.&nbsp;

Cover crops are not just for cattle to graze. In some areas, they can also be a short-season cash crop. Sara Carlson, with Practical Farmers of Iowa, said regenerative agriculture has a lot of definitions.

“Our vision (of regenerative farming) is to build resilience back into farms and then communities. What we really need is more people in our communities, and resilient farms can do this,” she said.&nbsp;

Like others on the Climate Smart panel, Practical Farmers of Iowa also work with the farmers and livestock producers to get funding from USDA programs.&nbsp;

The Hot Sheets: September 8th, 2023

Southwest Nebraska Public Health Department

Southwest Nebraska Public Health Department (SWNPHD) is seeing a higher number than usual of mosquito-related disease this year. Two more human cases of West Nile Virus have been reported in the health district, and unfortunately there has been one death due to West Nile Virus. One horse has also tested positive for West Nile.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Mosquitoes in the district continue to test positive for West Nile Virus and have now also tested positive for St. Louis Encephalitis Virus (SLE). “The symptoms of St. Louis Encephalitis are very similar to West Nile,” explained Sarah Minnick, Program Manager at SWNPHD. “You can protect yourself from both of these diseases by using bug repellent, dressing in lightweight long sleeves and pants, and draining standing water or using mosquito dunks. Try to avoid being outdoors during the hours of dawn and dusk when our mosquitoes are most active.”&nbsp;

Most people do not have symptoms after being infected with SLE. Those who do get sick usually start 4 to 14 days after the mosquito bite. Symptoms start abruptly with fever, headache, dizziness, nausea, and general weakness. Typically, symptoms get worse over a period of several days to a week, then improve.&nbsp;

Severe cases of SLE are rare and may include more serious symptoms such as stiff neck, confusion, disorientation, dizziness, tremors, and unsteadiness. Seek medical care right away as this may be signs of central nervous system infection.&nbsp;&nbsp;

There are no medications to prevent or treat SLE. Antibiotics are not effective against viruses, including West Nile and SLE. Rest, fluids, and over-the-counter pain medications may relieve some symptoms. In severe cases, some people may need to be hospitalized to receive supportive treatment, such as intravenous fluids, pain medication, and nursing care.&nbsp;

Per the Nebraska Department of Agriculture, the signs and symptoms of West Nile Virus in horses include loss of appetite, depression, fever, quivering muscles, and weakness of limbs. Infected horses may or may not show symptoms. Vaccination is the best practice to prevent West Nile Virus in horses.&nbsp; Owners should contact their veterinarian for additional information.&nbsp;

<a href="https://nebraskaexaminer.com/2023/09/06/from-the-ashes-of-a-destroyed-4-h-camp-rises-a-proposed-sandhills-center-to-rival-lied-lodge/">Nebraska Examiner</a>

LINCOLN — From the ashes of a destroyed 4-H camp at the Nebraska National Forest, an ambitious plan is rising for a $47 million center for tourists, conferences and local and regional events.

A feasibility study is underway for the proposed “Sandhills Discovery Center” near Halsey after the Nebraska Legislature, earlier this year, allocated $10 million towards replacing the State 4-H Camp, which was destroyed in a fire that<a href="https://nebraskaexaminer.com/briefs/fire-in-nebraska-national-forest-near-halsey-now-94-contained/">&nbsp;swept through the forest 11 months ago.</a>

State Sen. Mike Jacobson of North Platte, who represents the Halsey area and obtained the state funding, said that if the Sandhills center is done right, it could rival eastern Nebraska’s Mahoney State Park and Lied Lodge.

“All too often we don’t dream big enough,” Jacobson said in a press release.

He called the Nebraska National Forest and the Sandhills on which it sits “two of our state’s greatest treasures.”

The Nebraska Community Foundation, which helps dozens of Nebraska communities raise funds for local projects, has already done an economic impact study that estimates such a facility would bring a $4 million a year benefit to Halsey and nearby communities.

Now the foundation is conducting a feasibility study to gauge interest among donors for such a project, and what exactly should be built.

“We want to figure out how to do this right,” Jeff Yost, executive director of the Nebraska Community Foundation, said Wednesday.

“This idea makes an enormous amount of sense to me,” he added, “because this is a unique part of the world, and people want experiences.”

On Wednesday, the Nebraska 4-H Foundation announced that its board, in a special meeting, had voted to commit a $2 million insurance settlement from the fire toward development of the Discovery Center. The state’s funding must be matched dollar-for-dollar.

“We&nbsp;look forward to working with the community in a statewide effort to provide a future, first-class educational opportunity for 4-Her’s and an economic driver for the wider community,” said Roberta Pinkerton,&nbsp;president of the 4-H Foundation.

The 4-H Camp, which had been a fixture at the Halsey forest for 65 years, hosted a variety of events, from family reunions and weddings to 4-H conferences and a “Becoming an Outdoors Woman” retreat.

Dianna Rodocker, Halsey’s village clerk, said losing the camp was a blow to the community and the nearby ranching area because so many weddings and reunions were held there and because it generated traffic for local businesses.

She was among an estimated 60-70 people— equaling the population of Halsey — that packed a town hall meeting last month to hear about the plans from Jacobson and the Community Foundation.

“Everyone in town would be happy to see it,” Rodocker said. “But it’s hard to imagine that we’re going to have a facility out here that costs that much money that’s not in Omaha or Lincoln.”

But Yost and Stuart&nbsp;Shepherd, executive director of the Nebraska 4-H Foundation, said that such a facility in Halsey has a lot going for it.

The 4-H Camp, which could accommodate up to 200 overnight visitors in its lodge and cabins, was almost always busy, Shepard said.

Yost said people want to experience the Sandhills, a vast area of grass-covered sand dunes that became a National Natural Landmark in 1984. The same holds true for the 90,000-acre forest near Halsey, the largest hand-planted forest in North America.

The Middle Loup River adjacent to the forest hosts canoe and float trips, he said, and visitors could access nearby agri-tourism attractions.

The center is being envisioned on private land, near the forest and possibly on Nebraska Highway 2, a route that leads to the Black Hills and Yellowstone.

Yost said the facility, if deemed feasible, would be built in stages, with the first phase possibly opening by 2026. He said he’s been encouraged by the initial response.

“This is perfectly reasonable based on what tourists in 2023 are doing and say they want to do,” Yost said.
