NORTH PLATTE, Neb.-Nebraskaland Days 2020 got underway on Monday and seems to be quickly coming to a COVID-19 inspired stop.

On Thursday, the Nebraskaland Days Board of Directors and Rodeo Committee made the decision to hold the final three nights of the Buffalo Bill PRCA Rodeo without spectators. They also made the decision to cancel the Viaero Summer Jam concert series featuring .38 Special and Granger Smith.

Now, another popular Nebraskaland Days event has been canceled.

The North Platte Chamber Hostesses Lunch with the Wild Bunch has been canceled.

The event was slated to take place on Friday at the Wild West Arena Pavilion, but with the rise in confirmed cases of COVID-19 in Lincoln County, organizers decided to cancel the event in the name of public safety.

Decisions are still being made on several other Nebraskaland Days Events.
