A tailgate dinner will be held at the Neligh-Oakdale home football game against Clearwater-Orchard on Thursday, Oct. 22.
The N-O Booster Club will begin the tailgate at 6 p.m. at Warrior field. The meal will include: burger or brat, chips, and beans. The cost is $5 a plate, or $3 for just a burger or brat. It was a pink out Tuesday at Neligh-Oakdale, but not your ordinary pink out as this was about more than breast cancer awareness. It was also about helping a Neligh-Oakdale alumna who is battling breast cancer.
Brie Schrader Epke is a 1998 graduate of Neligh-Oakdale and is currently fighting breast cancer. Proceeds from this week’s FCCLA and volleyball events will be split between her and Antelope Memorial Hospital. Kelsey Green, Neligh-Oakdale senior and FCCLA president, said it was important to her for the organizations to help both causes. "Many people don't know it's really hard for the person and the family, and the treatment is really expensive," she said. "So we believe it's important to help them out, especially since they are from our community. We need to come together and help them out when they need it." Epke’s mother, Mary Schrader, serves as elementary principal at Neligh-Oakdale and said the support by the community has been overwhelming. "We are so grateful to everybody. The kids activities, organizations here at school, the volleyball, National Honor Society, FCCLA have come forward to try and raise money and just the whole community - the people in general," she said. "It makes a very difficult time so much easier knowing how many people really care and send their prayers and good wishes. It's overwhelming." With Epke's diagnosis and her strong connection to Neligh-Oakdale, breast cancer is hitting close to home for students. "I know the family; they're a block away from me. They're practically neighbors, so I feel it's my obligation to help out," said FCCLA officer Kasi Grosserode. The Warriors suffered two losses on the night. The Lady Warriors picked up the first set against Palmer 25-23, but dropped the second two sets 20-25, 14-25. Against Spaulding Academy, the Lady Warriors lost both sets with the same score of 19-25. Although the Warriors lost both matches Tuesday night, the pink crowd kept smiling throughout the night. Neligh-Oakdale will continue raising money for breast cancer awareness and for Brie Schrader Epke on Thursday when the Warriors host Clearwater-Orchard for a volleyball and football double header. An anonymous $5,000 donation is helping to kick off the fundraiser for the Neligh-Oakdale Jaws of Life.
According to Assistant Chief Dave Jacobsen, the current Jaws of Life is 33 years old and not strong enough to pry apart new cars. "As car technology has advanced, the steel in the car's supports are getting stronger and stronger," Jacobsen said. "Our old tools are not able to cut those anymore." Jacobsen said the Jaws of Life is important to rescue people trapped in vehicles after a car accident. "In a crash, the way cars are made today, they collapse upon themselves to protect the patient," Jacobsen said. "But while it does that, it takes special tools to unwrap the car around the patient." The total cost of the new equipment is $21,000. The new equipment the Jaws of Life is looking at is actually a year old and a demo set, which is more economical to purchase, Jacobsen said. He said the Neligh-Oakdale Jaws of Life is a separate entity from both the Neligh and Oakdale Fire Departments and doesn't rely on tax funds to operate. "We cover the Oakdale district, we cover Neligh district and part of Brunswick," said Jacobsen. To help in the fundraising effort, a pancake feed is planned for November 22. The squad is also accepting donations. Donations can be mailed to Neligh-Oakdale Jaws of Life, P.O.B. 251 Neligh, NE 68756. Two Neligh-Oakdale students were selected to All-State choir this week.
Celina Knievel and Wynter Fulsaas were among the more than 3,000 students in the state who auditioned. Less than 450 students were selected to be part of the 2015 All-State Chorus. Celina, a junior, is the daughter of Bill Knievel and Linda Miller-Thompson and was selected as Soprano 2. Wynter, a sophomore, is the daughter of Delayne and Angela Fulsaas and was selected as Alto 2. Nate Metschke and Pat Miller are the music directors at Neligh-Oakdale. The 2015 Nebraska Music Educators Association Conference will be Thursday, Nov. 19, through Saturday, Nov. 21. The concert will be Saturday, Nov. 21 at the Lied Center for the Performing Arts on the University of Nebraska-Lincoln campus at 4:30 p.m. The Neligh Public Library will be hosting programs on the next two Thursday nights.
"Nebraska Through Song & Story" will be presented on Thursday, Oct. 22 at 7 p.m., and "Nebraska's Musical Smorgasbord" is planned on Thursday, Oct. 29 at 7 p.m. These programs were made possible by Humanities Nebraska, the Nebraska Cultural Endowment and as part of the HN Speakers Bureau. Program details are below: Thursday, October 22; 7 pm “Nebraska Through Song & Story” --Presented by Dan Holtz Nebraska has not only a rich tradition in literature but also a rich, less-publicized tradition in music. This program interweaves songs, accompanied on guitar and harmonica, with excerpts from works by Willa Cather, John Neihardt, Mari Sandoz and Bess Streeter Aldrich. In a narrative from about 1850 to 1904, it tells the stories of the people who came to and through early Nebraska, the pioneers who crossed the overland trails, the settlers and the Native Americans. Thursday, October 29; 7 pm “Nebraska’s Musical Smorgasbord” --Presented by Chris Sayre This program explores the rich diversity of folk music that has been a part of Nebraska’s history from the time it was a territory to the present day. Performing on the button accordion, concertina, dulcimer, guitar, mandolin, musical saw and zithers, Sayre invites his audience to experience the music of the ethnic groups that have called Nebraska home.

Over 300 area students were in Neligh at the Antelope County Fairgrounds on Wednesday participating in District Livestock Judging.
According to Interim Elgin FFA Advisor Hilary Maricle, there were 311 students in attendance representing 12 different schools. Maricle is the substitute Agriculture teacher and FFA advisor at Elgin, taking over for Julia Schwartz who is on maternity leave. Elgin Public Schools hosted the event with the help of all the advisors. In livestock judging, students judge ten classes of livestock which, include cattle, sheep and hogs. “This allows them to help select which ones are the higher quality.” Maricle, said, "They look at performance data, and they also look at the animal, look at structure and muscle to identify the best livestock.” Maricle said that these skills will be helpful if the students purse a degree in Production Ag or Agribusiness. “Not only in agriculture, but no matter which career these students choose, their going to use the critical thinking, the problem solving skills,” said Maricle. She believes one of the most valuable classes is the Cull Keep, where students have to decide which four animals they would keep in their herd. “A lot of life skills are learned,” Maricle said. Official results from last Thursday's special election confirm the recall of the four city council members has failed.
Ballots were counted Thursday night at the Antelope County Courthouse by local election commissioner and county clerk Lisa Payne. The canvassing board later verified the ballots to ensure voter fraud had not been committed, and ballots were counted again. "They go back and make sure that everyone who signed in got a ballot, the ballot count is correct," Payne said. The question on the ballot asked "Shall (name of the official) be removed from office?" There were 551 ballots cast in the special election. Official results for each council member is listed below Leonard Miller: 166 Yes, 386 No, one over vote Stephanie Wanek: 180 Yes, 372 No, one undervote Dale Wilkinson: 204 Yes, 349 No Ted Hughes: 205 Yes, 347 No, one undervote The Antelope County News spoke to each council member and Mayor Joe Hartz on Thursday after unofficial results were announced. No more than two elected officials were present at one time. Miller, who had the most votes to stay in office said, "I'd like to thank the City of Neligh for getting out and voting today and supporting us in the election. I think this is a vote of support for what the council has done in that we've cut spending and lowering the mill levy. Hopefully we can move on in the future with the support of the whole community and make Neligh a better place to live." Wanek said, "Thank you Neligh voters for coming out today and voting in favor of progress and developing our community. It's time we all come back together and continue on for our future success." Wilkinson, who was present at the courthouse while ballots were counted, said, "It's good to have it over with. I was very please to see it come out the way it did. It gives the council a chance to move on and do the things we need to do to keep Neligh on the move. That's our whole goal - grow Neligh and keep it on the move." Hughes said, "I'd like to thank the citizens of Neligh who came forth to support the city council today, to support the true supporters of economic growth in Neligh. I'm happy to retain my council seat and look forward to moving on." There was also a petition to recall Mayor Hartz; however, no signatures were turned into the courthouse by the deadline to support the recall. His recall attempt then ended. Hartz was also at the courthouse awaiting election results and said, "It's a very positive feeling about community. We've talked about working together to grow our community, and I think this is the first step in our reacting to great news and now we can move on. . . . It's a great community, and hopefully any ill feelings will be left behind and we can start working together." The Neligh-Oakdale junior high volleyball team finished runner-up at the Elkhorn Valley Tournament on Sunday afternoon.
The Warriors lost 2-0 to Wayne in the championship. Coached by Jessica Eymann and Tabatha Kerkman, the team was made up of eighth-graders Amanda Dietz, Brooke Knievel and Shelby Pitzer and seventh-graders Brooke Frey, Claire Whitesel, Paige Furstenau, Trinity Kurpgeweit and Aubrie Klabenes. Neligh-Oakdale kicked off the tournament with a 2-0 win over Pierce before topping Winside 2-0 in the semifinal. Also at the tournament were Elkhorn Valley, Ewing, Ponca, Pierce, Winside and Humphrey/Holy Family. Neligh-Oakdale held the Wolfpack scoreless in the second half to rally for a 37-30 win and the district championship on Friday night.
That came after a huge first quarter where EPPJ scored three touchdowns in just 70 seconds to take a 22-7 lead early. But the Warriors rallied an only allowed one more Wolfpack touchdown on the entire night. "It was big," Warrior coach Ron Beacom said about Neligh-Oakdale first district title under his leadership. "It's been three years in the making for us now. Each year we've gotten a little bit better. The first year they were excited about making the playoffs. Last year it was important for us to win a playoff game and to host. This is that next step. Our expectations are different now.' The Wolfpack dominated Neligh-Oakdale in total offense, out-gaining the Warriors nearly 2-1. EPPJ had 450 yards of total offense compared to Neligh-Oakdale's 235. But the biggest stat of the night went to the Warriors with just one penalty for 10 yards. EPPJ was penalized 10 times for 95 yards. "Penalties killed our drives today," coach Randy Eisenhauer said. "We had 10 for 95 (yards), and they had one for 10. You add it up." Andrew Fangman has been the workhorse for the Wolfpack all season and ran for over 250 yards. The Warriors' running game was stopped often, but the passing game was on target with a balanced attack. Junior Grant White connected with classmate Chris Bentley on a pair of touchdowns and to Garett Allemang, who also ran back a fumble return. EPPJ 22 8 0 0 - 30 N-O 15 6 16 0 - 37 Scoring summary First Quarter N-O: Grant White 6 run (Robin Hahn PAT) EPPJ: Seth Schumacher 10 run (Andrew Fangman) EPPJ: Fangman 29 run EPPJ: Fangman 21 run (Fangman) N-O: Chris Bentley 23 pass from Grant White (Andrew Herley pass from White To Andrew Herley) Second Quarter EPPJ: Fangman 10 run (Fangman) N-O: Garett Allemang 31 fumble return Third Quarter N-O: Bentley 48 pass from White (White to Bentley) N-O: Allemang 12 pass from White (White to Allemang) The Neligh Fire Department responded to a fire north of Neligh on Friday afternoon where cornstalks were being baled.
At about 2:30 p.m. firefighters were called to 81570 523 Avenue, where corn stalks appeared to catch fire while being baled. Firefighters concentrated on two areas in the field but only a couple of bales appear to have caught fire. The fire was under control upon arrival. The Neligh Fire Department, Neligh Rescue and Nebraska State Patrol responded. The Antelope County Sheriff's Department is having a yard sale this Saturday.
The sale will be held from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., weather permitting. There are a variety of things on the sale from office chairs, desks, file cabinets, book cases and steel bed frames. There are also electronics to be sold from stoves and microwaves to scanners and printers. Items are being sold in preparation of the sale of the two buildings and lot that was the former Antelope County Jail. The location of the sale will be at 205 E 6th St. in Neligh. The Neligh-Oakdale FCCLA Chapter is partnering with the Neligh-Oakdale Volleyball team to raise awareness for breast cancer.
They started last Friday at the Wolfpack vs. Warriors football game where they had a pair of boots set up for donations at the concession stand. Throughout this week, they want to see if they can reach their goal of filling the boots so they can “Kick Cancer to the Curb”. During the Pink Out game on Tuesday, October 20, there will be a raffle with several items from area businesses. On Thursday, October 22, there will be a cake raffle at the volleyball game, with the drawing held during halftime of the home football game that night. All funds raised will be split between Antelope Memorial Hospital and the Brei (Shrader) Epke’s fight against cancer. The volleyball team and the FCCLA chapter would like to encourage the community to help in fighting cancer and thanks everyone for supporting the cause. After the recall attempt failed Thursday, all four Neligh City Council members had the same message for the community - it's time to move forward together.
The Antelope County News spoke to each council member and Mayor Joe Hartz after unofficial results were announced. No more than two elected officials were present at one time. Miller, who had the most votes to stay in office said, "I'd like to thank the City of Neligh for getting out and voting today and supporting us in the election. I think this is a vote of support for what the council has done in that we've cut spending and lowered the mill levy. Hopefully we can move on in the future with the support of the whole community and make Neligh a better place to live." The question on the ballot asked "Shall (name of the official) be removed from office?" Unofficial results for each council member is listed below Leonard Miller: 164 Yes, 383 No Stephanie Wanek: 178 Yes, 369 No Dale Wilkinson: 202 Yes, 346 No Ted Hughes: 203 Yes, 344 No Wanek received the second-most community support and is the newest of all council members. She was appointed last October to fill a vacant position and was then elected in November. She said, "Thank you Neligh voters for coming out today and voting in favor of progress and developing our community. It's time we all come back together and continue on for our future success." Wilkinson was the only council member present at the courthouse while ballots were counted. He said, "It's good to have it over with. I was very please to see it come out the way it did. It gives the council a chance to move on and do the things we need to do to keep Neligh on the move. That's our whole goal - grow Neligh and keep it on the move." Hughes and Wilkinson received the most votes in favor of being recalled but still retained their seat by more than 140 votes. After ballots were counted Hughes said, "I'd like to thank the citizens of Neligh who came forth to support the city council today, to support the true supporters of economic growth in Neligh. I'm happy to retain my council seat and look forward to moving on." There was also a petition to recall Mayor Hartz; however, no signatures were turned into the courthouse by the deadline to support the recall. His recall attempt ended in August. Hartz was also at the courthouse awaiting election results and said, "It's a very positive feeling about community. We've talked about working together to grow our community, and I think this is the first step in our reacting to great news and now we can move on. . . . It's a great community, and hopefully any ill feelings will be left behind and we can start working together." According to the petition, the recall was filed due to the council members' support of the annexation along Highway 275. Although annexation has long been talked about in Neligh, it took place following a request by Bomgaars to be annexed into city limits. The recall against Neligh's four city council members has failed, and all four will retain their elected positions.
Results from Thursday's special election were announced at the Antelope County Courthouse by local election commissioner and county clerk Lisa Payne. There were 548 ballots cast in the special election. The question on the ballot asked "Shall (name of the official) be removed from office?"

It's a great community, and hopefully any ill feelings will be left behind and we can start working together." The election results were delayed slightly due to machine issues, according to Payne. According to the petition, the recall was filed due to the council members' support of the annexation along Highway 275. Although annexation has long been talked about in Neligh, it took place following a request by Bomgaars to be annexed into city limits. The retail store asked for annexation in order to receive financial assistance with a new water line necessary for expansion. The Neligh location is currently the smallest of all the Bomgaars store. The expansion will nearly double the Neligh store’s size. In preparation for the recall, the city council took action to ensure the City of Neligh could pay regular bills if more than two council members were recalled. City employee salaries would be paid in November even if the recall was successful. The ESU 8's Second Annual Elementary Science Olympiad brought 70 kids from 14 different school districts to Neligh on Thursday.
Students in grades four through six participated in the event, moving between stations to explore science. According to Heidi Rethmeier, professional development coordinator, the activities are a lot of fun for the kids. "They get to explore what it's like to be a scientist and explore scientific investigation.," Rethmeier said, "It's very hands-on so, the kids enjoy the activities." Some of the stations at the Olympiad included a sink or float station where kids had to guess which objects would sink in a tank of water, and which ones would float. This was a lesson for them in density. "One station that I am running in particular is Strawberry DNA," said Rethmeier. "They get to explore some life science and extract DNA from strawberries and see what that looks like." Another activity involved catapulting gummy bears. Students are given random supplies and have to build a catapult to see how far they can launch a gummy bear. Rethmeier one of the activities was something that most people don't think about. Students have to build an object with legos hidden behind cardboard and then describe what they've built to another student to see if they could build the exact same thing. "A lot of students don't think about communication as being important for a scientist, but it certainly is," Rethmeither said. "So, thats a fun activity to see how they do." Neligh-Oakdale senior Austin Miller and junior Kasi Grosserode qualified for the state cross country meet today with their top-15 finishes at districts.
On Thursday at the Class D-3 district cross country meet in Ainsworth, Miller finished 13th in the boys race in 19:09.4 and Grosserode was 12th in the girls division with a time of 22:47.9. Both qualified for the state meet in Kearney on Friday, Oct. 23. Kasi will run at 2 p.m. and Austin is scheduled to run at 3 p.m. Click here for more state cross country information.

Jayden Arehart, N-O, 23:42 It was business as usual Tuesday for the Neligh City Council with little mention of Thursday’s special election where all four members are facing a recall attempt.
The only time the recall was mentioned was when action taken by the council to ensure city employees would be paid should all council be recalled. According to documents, the recall effort is due to the council members supporting the annexation of areas on both the east and west sides of Neligh. Besides the council members, opponents of the City Council members are also targeting Neligh’s economic development actions. Coincidentally, on the agenda was action a Phase I funding for the city’s downtown revitalization grant to improve Neligh’s downtown business community. Neligh is one of eight communities that was recently awarded Phase I funding by the state to develop a plan for Neligh. The Council approved Mayor Joe Hartz to sign the grant from the Nebraska Department of Economic Development (DED), the contract with Miller and Associates to assist with the planning stage and the receipt of the DED release of funds letter upon legal review. The City of Neligh’s special election will take place Thursday at Grace Lutheran Church. Residents will have until 8 p.m. to vote. Although annexation has long been talked about in Neligh, it took place following a request by Bomgaars to be annexed into city limits in order to receive assistance as the company expands the Neligh store, nearly doubling its size. In other business on Tuesday, a special designated liquor license was approved for the American Legion for the Neligh Young Men's Club Novemberfest on Nov. 7. This will be a beer and wine tasting event. Only those 21-and-over will be allowed entrance with an admission ticket. The Council approved a pledge of $2,500 from the lottery fund to CORE, contingent upon an award of a grant and a housing project in Neligh. Law enforcement was called to Neligh-Oakdale Schools on Wednesday and have confirmed the use of ambien by a student.
Principal George Loofe said Thursday morning faculty observed the impairment of a student on Wednesday. Loofe said faculty notified administration, who then called law enforcement and the student’s parents. Neligh Police Chief Mike Wright said, “The student was determined to be under influence of a drug, which was determined to be ambien. The juvenile was not prescribed ambien, and it is against the law to take a prescription medication you are not prescribed as well as against the law to dispense a prescription drug to an individual who it is not prescribed.” Both Loofe and Wright said no illegal substances were found on school grounds or on the individual. Loofe said the juvenile admitted to taking ambien. Neligh-Oakdale administration is asking parents to discuss the dangers of using unprescribed drugs. “We have had our suspicions, and this confirmed what drug is being used. We now have a handle on what is out there and what we are looking for,” Loofe said. “I hope this leads to discussion between students and parents about the dangers of drug use, and we are trying to hit this head on.” Loofe said disciplinary action has taken place by the school. Wright said the Neligh Police Department is investigating the incident and charges may be filed. According to Loofe, “Too much (ambien) renders a person with the appearance or behavior compared to being intoxicated. A side effect of taking too much is that a person would get sick to their stomach and vomit. This can be very dangerous as well as illegal. It is a very addictive drug and can be lethal. I urge you to visit with your children and explain the dangers.” Youth hunters from the area Saturday had the opportunity to participate in a mentor pheasant hunt.
This annual event is sponsored by Pheasants Forever. The Antelope County Shooters Club provided the ammunition for the annual hunt. Youth who participated in the event were Hunter Bennett, James Fulsass, Skyler Glenn, Riley Forman, Ben Wilcox, Terance Burrell, Issac Jimenez, Jace Cameron, Julien Hearn, Trey Svatos, Tighe Justice and Kaden Sager. All of the youth had completed a fall hunter's safety course and were selected from the Neligh and Tilden classes. Mentors and dog handlers were Mark Eggers, Roger Tillson, Randy Howser, Chris Hansen, Philip Martin, Bill Short, Brett Eggers, Wade Pitzer, Bill Bailey, Ed Hansen, Bill Hansen and Mark Hansen.
David Seay will present "Nebraska Territory Stories" at the Neligh Public Library this week.
The program is set to begin at 7 p.m. on Thursday, Oct. 15. Performing as a mid-1800s entertainer, multi-instrumentalist Seay, will sing and play popular folk music of the period. Between tunes he will regale the audience with stories of everyday life for the pioneers and of important events that occurred during those 13 years before Nebraska became a state. This cheerful show is suitable for the whole family. This program made possible by Humanities Nebraska, the Nebraska Cultural Endowment and as part of the HN Speakers Bureau. The Warriors traveled to Elgin for a volleyball triangular on Tuesday night.
EPPJ swept its own triangular, winning 25-22, 25-8 and 25-22 over Riverside and 25-21, 25-14 over Neligh-Oakdale. The Warriors dropped their first match against Riverside as well, falling 25-23 and 25-17. Danae Smith led the N-O attackers with 6 kills against EPPJ and five against Riverside. The Warriors are off the rest of this week, but will host Palmer and Spalding Academy in a home triangular next Tuesday. |
