Lincoln County - Law enforcement responds to three vehicle accident near Hershey Thursday morning.&nbsp;

According to the Lincoln County Sheriff's Office (LCSO), around 7:30am, deputies and EMS were dispatched to MM 165 on Highway 30 which is near Hershey. Reports came in that three vehicles were involved in a accident and injuries had occurred.&nbsp;&nbsp;

As law enforcement arrived on scene, Hershey EMS were removing the driver from a Ford pickup truck. The truck sustained heavy front-end damage, and the driver was trapped inside the truck according to officials.&nbsp;

&nbsp;Investigation shows that 23-year-old Hailey Falkena of North Platte was traveling westbound in her 2007 Trailblazer when she noticed a vehicle quickly approaching her from behind. Falkena was concerned the vehicle was going to hit her but the passing vehicle, a 2002 Jeep Liberty pulled out to pass her.&nbsp;&nbsp;

According to the press release from the LCSO, an eastbound 1993 Ford pickup truck being driven by 58-year-old Daniel Richardson of Sutherland was hit nearly head on. The Jeep skid into a ditch and rolled onto its top.

Officials say the Jeep was being driven by a 14-year-old with a school permit who was heading to band practice. The two vehicles that were involved in the collision veered into the path of Falkena's vehicle, causing damage to the front of the vehicle.&nbsp;

&nbsp; Falkena did not have any serious injuries from the incident. Richardson possibly had a broken leg and possibly a broken hip along with facial injuries. LCSO says the 14-year-old sustained a fractured neck from the accident. Highway 30 had to be closed for both eastbound and westbound traffic for an hour.&nbsp;

(Audio) North Platte City Council Meeting, August 6th recap

August 7, 2024 (Lexington, Neb.) – Richard’s Electric of North Platte has been awarded a $2.3 million bid for the&nbsp;<a href="https://dawsonpower.com/2024/07/dawson-ppd-plans-substation-work/" target="_blank">upgrade of two rural Dawson Public Power District substations</a>. The award was approved at Dawson PPD’s regular board meeting on August 5, 2024. Cross Canyon Engineering designed the substations. The sealed bid process is required for projects exceeding $750,000, as outlined in the recently passed LB 969.

Once the 2024 irrigation season is complete, work will begin at Sub 26, located southwest of Gothenburg, and Sub 35, located northeast of Gothenburg. Construction is expected to start on October 1 and be complete by May 2, 2025.

The Sub 26 update will convert it from 34,500 volts to 69,000 volts. The change will increase the capacity, with up to three times more power on the existing lines between area substations. This improves efficiency and decreases operational costs. The rebuild will also modernize the design and provide options for future substation automation.

An increase in irrigation load has made upgrades at Sub 35 necessary. Over the last four years, there has been an almost 70% increase in power required at that substation. This is equivalent to adding 34, 100-horsepower irrigation wells. The loads have come from conversions to electric irrigation equipment upgrades and the re-activation of previously unused services.

Other items of discussion at the meeting include:

North Platte, Neb., August 6, 2024 - Great Plains Health is proud to highlight its Accelerated&nbsp; Bachelor of Science in Nursing (ABSN) program, with the next cohort set to begin this January.&nbsp; This innovative program, offered in collaboration with the University of Nebraska Medical&nbsp; Center through Kearney (NMC), continues to provide a fast-track option for individuals looking&nbsp; to transition into the nursing field.&nbsp;

“Our state faces a significant need for more nurses,” said Ivan Mitchell, CEO of Great Plains&nbsp; Health. There are numerous initiatives across Nebraska to train future healthcare&nbsp; professionals, and we are proud to continue the Accelerated Bachelor of Science in Nursing&nbsp; (ABSN) program. This ongoing program is a vital step in encouraging nursing careers and&nbsp; ensuring we have the skilled nurses needed to provide exceptional care in our community.”&nbsp;

The ABSN program is designed for those who already hold a bachelor's degree in another field&nbsp; and are seeking a career change to nursing. This accelerated program allows students to earn&nbsp; their BSN in a condensed timeframe, combining intensive coursework with hands-on clinical&nbsp; experience at Great Plains Health.&nbsp;

Tina Pate, Chief Nursing Officer at Great Plains Health, emphasizes the program's value: " The&nbsp; ABSN program provides an excellent opportunity for those looking to switch careers. We&nbsp; appreciate the diverse perspectives these students bring, and our team is committed to&nbsp; providing the support and resources they need to succeed in this challenging and rewarding&nbsp; field. "&nbsp;

The nursing field is experiencing rapid growth, with the Bureau of Labor Statistics predicting an&nbsp; increase of more than 438,000 new RN jobs by 2026. UNMC nursing graduates are in high&nbsp; demand among employers throughout Nebraska, with BSN graduates having a competitive&nbsp; edge.&nbsp;

Great Plains Health Offers Accelerated Path to Nursing Career

(North Platte, Nebraska) - Musical Theater writers Johnny Rodgers and Sue (Fabisch) Errico set their sights on the historical, inspiring story of the North Platte Canteen with a large, full-scale, professional musical. The authors, who have successes around the world, first heard about it at Errico’s daughter’s college visit.

 “We were visiting Freed-Hardman University in Tennessee when the president of the school gave his sermon about the canteen. I had never heard of it before, so I put a reminder in my phone to research it more when I returned home”, Errico said. And research it she did. After reading every book, article and internet post, Errico says she was “flabbergasted” by this rich and heartwarming story. She called her co-writer Johnny Rodgers to suggest that they work on this together.&nbsp;

“Everything’s already there and we’re just ‘musical paleontologists’ dusting it off for the world to see”, says Rodgers. The duo is aiming for Broadway, but know that this is (at least) a 3-5 year process. “We just finished year number two”, says Errico. “But we had to have the first production right here in North Platte…where it all began.” A local cast &amp; crew of talented performers will bring the show to life in September and October as the 2024-2025 Season Premiere Production of the North Platte Community Playhouse. The show is clean, wholesome, patriotic and appropriate for all ages. Exactly what the world needs right now.&nbsp;

Tickets go on sale Monday August 5, 2024 at https://northplattecommunityplayhouse.com/ or at the Fox Theater, 301 E 5th St, North Platte, NE 69101, (308) 532-8559.&nbsp;

In 1941, when 26-year-old Rae Wilson heard that her brother’s troop train would be making a stop in their hometown of North Platte, Nebraska, she organized a group of ladies to welcome the boys with food and gifts for their long journey off to war. But a different train without her brother arrived instead, and Rae’s decision to welcome these young men and women transformed her generosity into a four-and-a-half year phenomenon. A two-act musical full of love, perseverance, and even a popcorn ball.&nbsp;

SUE FABISCH (ERRICO) is the author (book, music, lyrics) of Motherhood the Musical, which has played across the US and around the world in Peru, Portugal, Scotland, Toronto, New Zealand, Czech Republic, Argentina, Hungary and Australia. Next up for “Motherhood…” are shows in Spain, Mexico, Brazil, and more!&nbsp;

An award-winning songwriter for other artists, Sue’s songs have reached the #1 spot on Radio Disney and her own album hit the Top 10 spot on Billboard Magazine’s Comedy Chart. Formerly from New Jersey, Sue has three kids and lives in Nashville, TN. www.MommyMusic.com and www.MotherhoodtheMusical.com&nbsp;

JOHNNY RODGERS is an internationally celebrated singer-songwriter, pianist, Broadway veteran, and recording artist. As an Ambassador of American Music, Johnny tours for the State Department to places such as the Middle East, North Africa, Southeast Asia, and the Pacific Islands. Johnny has toured Russia and performed with the Moscow Symphony Orchestra.&nbsp;

Rodgers doubled as Music Director and piano man for Liza Minnelli performances/tours and starred in and wrote the song “I Would Never Leave You” for Liza’s Tony Award®-winning Liza’s At The Palace, which was filmed and released by PBS television. Johnny has earned New York’s Nightlife, Bistro and MAC awards for his performances at Carnegie Hall, Lincoln Center, Jazz At Lincoln Center, Oak Room at the Algonquin Hotel, Feinstein’s at Loews Regency, and other premiere clubs. His songwriting has been recognized with Billboard and ASCAP Foundation awards.
