  • Clearwater Rodeo ready to rock

    LuAnn Schindler, Publisher|Jul 2, 2020

    While the 53rd version of Clearwater's Big Rodeo will look familiar, several adaptations will be in place because of COVID-19 concerns. According to Clearwater Chamber of Commerce President Curt Thiele, the organization has worked hand-in-hand with North Central District Health Department personnel to develop a plan so the rodeo would come to fruition.

  • Antelope County 2940 account remains under sheriff's direction

    Sandy Schroth, Editor|Jul 2, 2020

    Twenty-nine-forty – an accounting code that identifies an Antelope County Law Enforcement Center fund – has become a familiar term during Antelope County commissioner dialog, as well as a point of contention between county officials. The “special revenue” account was formed after the Law Enforcement Center went into operation in 2015. In the ensuing years, the balance in the account has grown to more than $400,000 from fees charged for housing prisoners from other counties and law enforcement services provided to several Antelope County...

Scott hops in the truck and leads us to a vibrant mecca, a hidden spot loaded with nature's finest food: wild asparagus. He slows the vehicle to a snail's pace, his eyes perched on the driver's side ditch, while I scan the other side. In parts of Antelope, Holt and Wheeler counties, the feral version of asparagus officinalis...

  • Antelope County commissioners adopt new snow-plowing policy

    Sandy Schroth, Editor|Dec 12, 2019

    Antelope County Commissioners adopted a new snow removal policy when they met last Tuesday at the courthouse in Neligh. Casey Dittrich, road superintendent, presented the policy that he and road foreman Aaron Boggs have been drafting over the past few weeks, with input from Tim Baxter from the Nebraska Intergovernmental Risk Management Agency, the county’s liability-insurance carrier. Input also came from road crew members and, according to Dittrich, has the “blessing” of county attorney Joe Abler. The policy establishes protocol for the order...
