Omaha, NE – FNBO (First National Bank of Omaha) is proud to announce its 2025 City Ambassadors, a group of 21 employees helping to support communities across the bank’s eight-state footprint.

“We are so appreciative of the passion our City Ambassadors have for our communities and the great care they take to ensure communities are supported well, especially in our key focus areas of financial literacy, workforce development and affordable housing,” said Christina Kahler, Managing Director, Philanthropy.

City Ambassadors lead the Impact by FNBO strategy in its local communities by providing direction and visibility for community work internally and externally. They drive local decisions on philanthropic giving and serve as leaders and key points of contact in the community, while helping to ensure employees are engaged in volunteer service and elevating community needs and successes.

“Our City Ambassadors are imperative to how we operate as the great big, small bank,” said David Cota, Executive Vice President, Banking. “Community has always been at the heart of who we are as a company and our City Ambassadors embody that with their work delivering support in all the places we call home.”

In 2024, FNBO’s City Ambassadors oversaw $2.8 million in philanthropic support outside of Omaha. They are appointed for one-year terms, though with their depth of expertise and commitment, many serve for more than a year in the role.

Laura Troshynski named North Platte’s new FNBO City Ambassador

(North Platte, Neb.)&nbsp;&nbsp;— Troopers with the Nebraska State Patrol SWAT Team have arrested one person following a standoff in Hitchcock County.

At approximately 5:15 p.m. Saturday, NSP received a request from the Hitchcock County Sheriff’s Office regarding an investigation in Stratton. The Sheriff’s Office had responded to a report of a domestic disturbance in which a subject had threatened a family member with a handgun. The victim was able to exit the residence and deputies determined that the subject was alone in the home, in the 800 block of Hamilton Street in Stratton.

The NSP SWAT Team was activated, along with NSP Crisis Negotiators and Drone Operators. Numerous attempts were made to communicate with the subject, but he did not respond. Troopers used drone and robot technology, as well as an NSP Police Service Dog, to determine the subject’s location inside the home.

Just after 3:00 a.m., troopers made entry into the home and located the subject hiding in the basement. He was taken into custody without incident. Keenan Jorschumb, 38, was arrested for making terroristic threats, use of a deadly weapon to commit a felony, and third-degree assault. He was lodged in Lincoln County Jail.

Nebraska Department of Transportation

&nbsp;(Lincoln, Neb.) — The Nebraska Department of Transportation (NDOT) announced a series of achievements recognizing excellence in aviation and transportation at the Nebraska Aviation Council’s annual symposium in Kearney on Jan. 29-30. Western Nebraska Regional Airport was named the 2024 Airport of the Year for its exceptional service, community engagement and regional impact. 

Central Nebraska Regional Airport’s recent series of airfield lighting and navigation upgrades was recognized as the 2024 Project of the Year, improving safety and operational efficiency. Additionally, NDOT celebrated the creativity of young Nebraskans through the 2025 Aviation Youth Art Contest. 

Western Nebraska Regional Airport (Scottsbluff) Named 2024 Airport of the Year

Western Nebraska Regional Airport (WNRA) was recognized as the 2024 Airport of the Year for its vital role in aviation, community engagement and regional development. It is a critical resource for Western Nebraska and Eastern Wyoming and provides key services, including fueling, maintenance, flight instruction and rental cars. A new partnership with Kimball County Transit Authority now offers affordable transportation to Denver International Airport, expanding travel options for residents, especially those in rural areas with limited transportation. 

The airport actively engages with the community through school tours, aviation events and collaborations with Western Nebraska Community College and local Experimental Aircraft Association chapters. WNRA supports economic growth through freight services, Air Med operations and agricultural partnerships. By maintaining these strong connections, WNRA ensures responsible development for the region.

Mid-Plains Community College licensed practical nursing students and associate degree nursing students both achieved a 100 percent pass rate on their NCLEX-PN and NCLEX-RN for the second year in row.

“I’m super excited that we had a 100 percent pass rate again for both the RN and LPN program,” said Dr. Kathy Harrison, MPCC director of nursing.&nbsp; “I have an excellent faculty who work well together, they work well with the students, they try to give them innovative ideas and bring different activities into the classroom to help them be hands on learners.”

The NCLEX exam tests the competency of nursing school graduates in the U.S. and Canada, according to the National Council of State Boards of Nursing, which develops the exam.

Its purpose is to determine if a graduate can safely begin practice as an entry level nurse. The exam tests application and analysis using the knowledge grads learned in college and also tests their abilities to think critically and make informed decisions.

She attributes the 100 percent pass rate to several changes that have been made to the program.

“One of the key things that helped us with the pass rates is that we did a curriculum change and added in a preceptorship into the second year of the RN program,” Harrison explained.&nbsp; “We also added an NCLEX prep class to better prepare our students for the NCLEX.”

The preceptor experience pairs a student with an experienced nurse for 84 hours of clinical, which helps bridge the gap between being a student and becoming a professional nurse.

The students in both programs take two mock exams at the end of their programs. They use these exams to develop a study plan for the NCLEX.

“I cannot express how proud I am of the ADN and PN classes of 2023 &amp; 2024 and the hard work and dedication that they put into obtaining a 100 percent pass rate on their NCLEX exams,” said Harrison. “I am blessed to have a highly qualified faculty that has put a lot of time and energy into helping these students obtain their goal of becoming nurses.”

Woman Found Deceased in Lincoln County Jail

KEARNEY – Clayton Moore’s teammates call him a “country boy.”

His older sister Samantha Moore often hears a similar term – “ranch tough.”

They’re both references to the siblings’ blue-collar upbringing and the work ethic, determination and discipline they display as University of Nebraska at Kearney basketball players.

“Where we grew up, there’s not much to do but work,” said Clayton, a redshirt freshman at UNK. “And competitiveness kind of comes along with that. Growing up, all you could really do for fun was compete with each other. It was either that or go outside and work. And competing with each other was more enjoyable than throwing hay bales around or fixing windmills.”

Raised on a ranch in the heart of the Nebraska Sandhills, the Moores have never known a life that didn’t revolve around hard work, humility and sports.

Their parents, Rusty and Jennifer, instilled those values.

They were both standout athletes at Nebraska Wesleyan University, where Jennifer was a volleyball player and five-time All-American in track and field. Rusty also competed in track, earning All-American honors and winning two national championships in the 4×400 relay.

He coached basketball at Mullen High School for 14 years, leading the boys team to its first-ever state title in 2017. Rusty passed away in February 2020 following a two-year battle with brain cancer.

Jennifer taught and coached at Mullen and McPherson County high schools before moving to Alma, where she’s the head volleyball coach and an assistant track coach.

To nobody’s surprise, their children followed in those footsteps.

If they weren’t assisting with chores, the Moore kids were likely challenging each other in some sort of activity.

As youngsters, they played basketball in the house, using tape stuck to the basement wall as a hoop. Later on, those games moved to the driveway, where Clayton and Samantha battled their older brother Lance.

“You can kind of imagine how that went,” Clayton said with a smirk. “Sometimes it got a little rough. I mean, there were no referees out there.”

“I think that’s really where our competitiveness started to grow,” he added.

Although Clayton and Samantha both admit they could have been nicer to each other growing up, that passion and intensity helped fuel their success.

“Over the last couple years, from high school to college, I feel like we’ve grown our friendship,” said Samantha, a senior at UNK. “We’re still competitive, but I feel like we’ve gotten closer.”

Now, if you ask the siblings who the better athlete is, neither will claim that distinction.

Instead, they talk about each other’s accomplishments.

Samantha was a three-sport star at Mullen High School, scoring 1,550 career points in basketball and helping the Broncos finish third in the 2021 Class D2 state tournament. She also led the volleyball team in kills and blocks as a senior and qualified for the Class D state track and field championships in three events, including a runner-up finish in the 100-meter hurdles.

Clayton was equally successful. He averaged 18.1 points and 10.5 rebounds as a senior, earning Class D2 First-Team All-State honors in 2023. Also a three-sport standout, he played quarterback and defensive back for the football team and was a state champion in the 300-meter hurdles and state runner-up in the 110 hurdles, 300 hurdles, long jump and 4×400 relay.

When the time came to select a college, Samantha was the first family member to break the Wesleyan connection.

“I can be the guilty one,” she said with a laugh. “I’ll take the blame for that.”

Samantha was recruited by former UNK coach Carrie Eighmey, who now leads the women’s basketball program at the University of South Dakota.

“Right when I stepped on campus, I knew this was my place,” Samantha said.

The 6-foot guard/forward battled injuries early in her UNK career and played behind some experienced starters. She appeared in eight games as a freshman and 26 as a sophomore. The Lopers reached the NCAA Division II national tournament both seasons.

Eighmey and her staff left the program in spring 2023, but Samantha remained committed to UNK.

“At the end of the day, I wanted to play somewhere where I felt like I was in a sisterhood and a family,” she explained. “I loved my teammates so much that I didn’t want to leave.”

Drew Johnson, who was hired to replace Eighmey, gives Samantha a lot of credit for embracing the new coaching staff with open arms and creating a positive culture that continues to define the team. He calls her a hardworking, high-octane player.

“Sam is someone who brings a lot of energy to the team, whether she’s on or off the court,” Johnson said. “When she’s playing her best basketball, she’s really energetic and engaged, having fun and cracking jokes. That energy really resonates with our team. It’s a lot of fun to be able to coach her because of that.”

After an injury forced her to miss the early part of the season, Samantha came back strong for the Lopers as a junior. She played in 21 games and started 16 of them, averaging 6.7 points, 4.1 rebounds and 1.5 assists per contest.

Those numbers are even better this season. Samantha has started all 18 games for the Lopers, who are 15-3 overall and 8-1 in the MIAA. She averages 10 points and a team-leading 7.9 rebounds per game while shooting 37% from 3-point range. Her 60 assists and 10 blocks both rank second on the team.

Samantha recorded what was likely the first triple-double in program history on Dec. 16, when she scored 16 points, grabbed 10 rebounds and dished out 10 assists in a 95-26 victory over York University.

“She’s been really dynamic for us,” Johnson said. “She shoots the 3 at a high percentage. She’s able to post up smaller guards. And she’s a great defender.

“It doesn’t get a lot better in this world than Sam Moore, and I’m thankful to have gotten a chance to coach her.”

Clayton joined his older sister at UNK in fall 2023.

He liked the location and smaller, close-knit community – “I’m not a big-city guy,” he firmly declared – as well as the opportunity play against top-notch teams.

“As athletes, you want to compete at the highest level you possibly can,” Clayton said. “We were given the chance to compete here at UNK, a Division II university in one of the best conferences in the country.”

Like his sister, Clayton stuck with his commitment after a coaching change. That was good news for first-year head coach Marty Levinson, who was hired by his alma mater in April 2024.

He describes Clayton as hardworking, humble, attentive and selfless – “pretty much all the qualities you would want in a teammate.”

“Even though he’s so young and he doesn’t have a ton of on-court playing experience at the college level, he’s already been a leader for us because of those characteristics,” Levinson said.

Following a redshirt season, Clayton is now an important contributor for Levinson and the Loper men, who are 6-11 overall and 4-5 in the conference. He’s played in all 17 games, starting six of them. The 6-foot-4 guard/forward averages 20 minutes, 5.2 points and 4.7 rebounds per contest.

Calling him a “pusher” who’s always looking to learn and grow, Levinson expects Clayton’s role to continue to expand.

“He’s going to be a difference maker by the time he’s a junior or senior, even by next year,” the UNK coach said. “He’s been a blessing to have, not just on the floor but because of who he is every day.

“Clayton is much more than just a basketball player. He’s an amazing human being. That doesn’t always show up in the box score, but he’s a big part of our recent success.”

Now that they’re 20 and 22 years old, Clayton and Samantha can fully appreciate their relationship and the benefits of having a sibling to lean on.

They live in the same apartment complex, just south of the Health and Sports Center, and often get together to watch sports or play video games.

“Who wouldn’t want to attend the same school as their sibling, hang out and play the same sport?” Samantha said. “It’s so awesome. When we travel on the road, I get to watch my brother play right after us and he gets to watch me play. I’m beyond grateful. It’s such a blessing.”

“I can’t imagine it any other way now,” Clayton added.

Both recognized on the MIAA Academic Honor Roll, Samantha is&nbsp;<a href="https://www.unk.edu/academics/ted/elementary-education.php">studying elementary education</a>&nbsp;and Clayton is an&nbsp;<a href="https://www.unk.edu/academics/agribusiness/index.php">agribusiness major</a>. She wants to teach in a small town in Nebraska and he plans to return to the family ranch near Tryon.

Those rural roots run too deep to change.

Visit North Platte Grant Awards 

North Platte, Neb. - When most folks here 4-H, they instantly think it's animal showing, which there is plenty of that. However, there are different areas of activities for 4-H'rs to get involved in and one of those areas is the entrepreneurship project.&nbsp;

Emersyn Sheard, a local 4-h'r for Lincoln, Logan and McPherson County spent this past summer doing different activities but one of those activities was her entrepreneurship project which was a robot that can clean your room.&nbsp;

"For my four H entrepreneurship project, I identified a problem that I think most people relate to keeping their room clean. I know we can all struggle with that, and it can be overwhelming to find the time and motivation to tidy up. So, I came up with a solution, a robot that could clean your room for you, " said Emersyon Sheard. " I designed a prototype which was more like a concept or an idea to show what the robot could look like and how it could work. Through this project I learned about the importance of problem solving. It was fun to learn how to gather data with a survey."&nbsp;

Sheard also participated in food and nutrition, sewing, entrepreneurship and art and crafts and plans on to do many of those activities once again this summer.&nbsp;

To learn more In-depth about the entrepreneurship project and Sheard experience with 4-H, check out the podcast below.&nbsp;
