Deer season in Nebraska officially closed Jan. 15 when the late antlerless seasons ended.

The river antlerless season was shortened due to reduced deer numbers across much of the state. That season now aligns with the rest of the antlerless seasons, and all of them closed Jan. 15.

Final deer harvest results will be available late next month at&nbsp;<a href="https://outdoornebraska.gov/" target="_blank">OutdoorNebraska.gov</a>; search “wildlife surveys”.

Hunters interested in learning more about the 2024 season, big game research and management will be able to view a recording of the online big game informational session via Nebraska Game and Parks’ YouTube channel.

Among other things, they will be responsible for leading the college through policy creation and initiation and through articulation and evaluation of the college’s scope, mission, values and legislated priorities.

Jeffres replaces Jo Etta Brown, of Ogallala, in representing District 2.

As a new board member Jeffres said, “I am most looking forward to contributing to the success and growth of Mid-Plains Community College by supporting its mission to provide accessible, high-quality education and opportunities for students.”

McGown takes over the District 5 seat for Ernie Mehl.

The Hot Sheets: January 18th, 2025

The North Platte Water Department would like to remind its customers that when the outside temperature is below zero, as it is forecasted to be, to leave their water running to prevent the water service and interior plumbing from freezing up.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

&nbsp; Just a 1/8th inch stream of water running will prevent the main water service from freezing.&nbsp; This will save costly repair bills and the inconvenience of being without water.&nbsp; We have a device available at our office you can install in your toilet tank that will keep the water running constantly.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Please check your foundation vents to ensure they are closed.&nbsp; Check for cracks or openings that would allow the wind to blow under or into your crawlspace.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

Please contact our office if you have any questions.&nbsp;&nbsp;308-535-6740&nbsp;&nbsp;

North Platte, NE – January 15, 2025 – Community Connections’ Drug Take-Back events,&nbsp; formerly known as Prescription Drug Collections, resulted in the safe and proper disposal of 169&nbsp; pounds of medications, including 5.6 pounds of controlled substances. Within the last decade,&nbsp; Community Connections has removed 2,491.81 pounds of medication (including 91.56 pounds&nbsp; of controlled substances) from our community.&nbsp;

The Drug Take-Back events are essential to the community and play a key role in preventing&nbsp; pharmaceutical drugs from falling into the wrong hands or polluting our water systems. Safe and&nbsp; responsible disposal of unused or expired medications is vital to the health and safety of the&nbsp; Lincoln County community, helping to reduce the risk of accidental poisoning, misuse, and&nbsp; environmental contamination.&nbsp;&nbsp;

These events were made possible through the ongoing partnerships with Region II Human&nbsp; Services, West Central District Health Department, Great Plains Health, Ready to Serve&nbsp; Volunteer Program (RSVP), Keep North Platte and Lincoln County Beautiful, Bomgaars, the&nbsp; North Platte Police Department, the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office, and the Nebraska State&nbsp; Patrol.&nbsp;&nbsp;

"By offering a safe, accessible way for community members to dispose of their medications, we&nbsp; continue to protect public health and safeguard our local environment,” said Erin Bone,&nbsp; Substance Abuse Prevention System Coordinator of Community Connections. “The ongoing&nbsp; support of our local partners is instrumental in ensuring these events reach as many people as&nbsp; possible.”&nbsp;

Lincoln County residents are encouraged to participate in future Drug Take-Back events to&nbsp; ensure the safe disposal of unused or expired medications. Events take place on the 3rd Saturday&nbsp; of each month from 11am – 1pm at Bomgaars (510 E Philip Ave, North Platte). For more&nbsp; information, visit www.communityconnectionslc.org.&nbsp;&nbsp;

We build connections between community agencies, businesses, neighborhoods, schools,&nbsp; families and individuals to coordinate activities, services, and programs that enhance the quality&nbsp; of life in Lincoln County. We create change and inspire others to work together toward a better&nbsp; tomorrow.&nbsp;
