When it came time to choose
this year’s Arbor Day honorees,
the Arbor Day Committee of the
Nebraska City Tourism and Commerce didn’t have to look any
farther than Arbor Lodge and its
long-time superintendent, Randy
Fox, and assistant superintendent,
Mark Kemper.
“It was kind of an easy decision,”
said Amy Allgood of NCTC.
“We’ve always looked to Randy
and Mark as the stewards and
the tree planters of Arbor Lodge,”
and naming them as honorees is
something the committee has
suggested over the years.
This year, the suggestion was
implemented, and Fox and Kemper will be recognized during this
year’s festival for their years of
service to Arbor Lodge and for
the thousands of trees they’ve
seen take root around Nebraska
City.
Fox and Kemper will be honored throughout the weekend.
On Friday, they will be honored
with the planting of a black tupelo

in a commemorative ceremony
that begins at 4 p.m. on the
grounds of Arbor Lodge, followed
by a reception in the sunroom of
the mansion. Allgood said that
Fox selected the type of tree that
will be planted this year, putting
as much thought and care into
this year’s selection as he and
Kemper have in years past.
“They always put a lot of
thought into the trees planted, “
she said. “Randy and Mark considered the type of tree for the

one of the three proposed sites for sports complex,
amphitheater and trails system.
Business owner Jim Thurman spoke about
the proposed project. Thurman, who has lived
in Nebraska City for most of his life, said he has
become "frustrated" with people not choosing
to reside or stay in Nebraska City, the limited
space at athletic fields and the lack of fine arts
and walking and biking trails in town.
"My thought is that you create a community
that is rich in the arts, you create a community
where we can bike and walk safely, a community
where we have plenty of open space, athletic
fields for our youth and package that in Nebraska
City," he said. "(If you) make it a great place to
live with all of the amenities that we need, and
the jobs and development will come to you."
Many people involved with youth baseball,
soccer and fast pitch softball organizations and
residents spoke in support of the proposed
project.
This fall, Nebraska City Middle
School students will each get a
Chromebook to use in school.
The Nebraska City Public Schools
School Board approved to implement
a preliminary Technology Pilot program during it's meeting April 13.
"What ultimately we are asking
for tonight is that the board approve
a pilot for the middle school to provide a learning environment that's
rich in technology, that provides
each student with a device that they
can use on a regular basis day-in
and day-out as it would enhance
the curriculum, and the teaching
and the learning in the class," NCMS
principal Craig Taylor said to the
board.
The vision of the Technology Pilot
proposal is: "Nebraska City Public
Schools focuses advanced technologies to create an environment of
outstanding instruction so each student becomes a productive member
in a global society" by providing:
■ Regular opportunities for students to interact with technology,
■ Developing skills that enhance
students' personal productivity,
■ Developing students' critical
thinking skills,
■ Collaboration between students
and staff,
■ Recognizing that technology is
key to student learning and success
in the classroom and in their daily
lives,
■ Recognizing that technology offers educators effective ways to reach
different types of learners,
■ Empowering students' inherent
motivation to learn,
■ And allowing for multiple ways
of assessing student understanding.
"We want to take the middleschool environment and provide
what they call 21st-Century learning
opportunities to encourage more
critical thinking, more collaboration,
more communication," Taylor said
April 17.

space, and they considered the
person that the tree was planted
in their honor... maybe it was
their favorite tree. They were just
always very methodical about
the tree picked for this very special
honor.”
“Mark’s going to throw in a
coin,” Fox predicted, adding that
it’s been a tradition the two have
followed since planting their first
trees together 30 years ago at
the lodge.
Kemper explained that he began the tradition after he and
Fox found so few artifacts when
they replanted trees or did other
outdoor maintenance at the mansion. “It’s just something that I
thought would be kind of neat
for someone in the future to find
if they had to replace a tree,” he
said.
On Saturday, Gov. Pete Ricketts
will honor them at 12:30 p.m. at
a ceremony at the Otoe County
Courthouse before Fox and Kemper drive their Bobcat down Central Avenue as grand marshals

Drug disposal available in Nebraska City
What should you do with your unused, unwanted, or expired medications? Now there is an easy answer
available in Nebraska City. For years
we have continued to flush these medications. This is not the answer. Instead,
take them to your local pharmacy for
disposal. Walgreens Pharmacy is now
able to collect these unwanted medications and make sure they are disposed of safely. Find other participating
pharmacies at www.nebraskameds.org.
Why is this so important?
A nationwide study released in 2002
by the United States Geological Survey
detailed trace levels of prescription
drugs found in 80 percent of the waterways across the country. Pharmaceutical chemicals can enter the environment contaminating surface and
groundwater by several means.
Also, according to the Office of National Drug Control Policy, each year
in the United States more than 71,000
children age 18 and younger are seen
in emergency rooms for unintentional
overdoses of prescription and overthe-counter medications. Additionally,
among young people ages 12-17, prescription medications have become the
second most abused substance, behind
marijuana.

GUEST COLUMNIST
Medicade Redesign
qualifies as stimulus
Alvin Guenther
[email protected]
Less than a week after I
had released my guest
commentary to the Nebraska City News Press
discussing the dangers of
skepticism, I wrote to a
Nebraska State Senator
questioning his vote on
the Medicaid Redesign
Act.
I questioned his stance
for he used partisan ideology as a reason to vote nay
to the bill as opposed to using testible hyposthesis
and quantitive analysis to
arrive at a decision that
may have life changing cataclysmic affects upon thousands of fellow Nebraskans.
Following is that letter:
sumption increases at the
same rate as the income increases.
At issue here is that, yes
the percentage remains the
same but the number of
actual dollars saved as opposed to being used for
consumption also increases. That savings represents a leakage from the
CIRCULAR FLOW OF
MONEY.
If that saved money is
borrowed or reinvested in
new
PLANT
AND
EQUIPMENT or new
jobs, that savings would
represent an injection into
the circular flow of money.
However, if it is used for
speculative purposes such
as an investment in stocks
other than the original issuance then it simply becomes speculation and
does not increase GROSS
DOMESTIC PRODUCT.
To summarize, the more
income a household
earns… a decreasing
amount of that income in
dollars is used for consumption and more dollars
will go for saving. (Leakage from the circular flow
of money).
To achieve an injection
into the circular flow of
income and thus an economic stimulus, that excessive income is taxed
and redistributed to those
that will spend it on, the
lifeblood of capitalism,
household consumption.
The $2.1 billion that the
state will receive over a
five year period, combined
with $992,000 received
daily in federal expansion
funding, the $5 billion in
increased activity could result because most likely a
greater percentage of that
stimulus funding will go to
Registered Nurses, Licensed Practical Nurses,
Nurses Aids, Laboratory
technicians, janitors, electricians, plumbers, accountants, building contractors, utilities personnel,
and other middle income
households.
These middle income
households will spend
most of their earned income on household consumption as opposed to
the circular flow of money
leakage known as saving.
CETERUS PARIBUS
(The assumption that
everything else will remain
constant) this increased
household consumption,
the life blood of capitalism,
may create economic
growth sufficient to slow
the “brain drain” and greatly improve the economic
climate in rural Nebraska.
This proposed economic growth, Ceterus Paribus,
could mirror the economic growth represented by
new business startups surrounding Lincoln’s Pinnacle Bank Arena and Omaha’s Century Links Arena.
I must be extremely
careful that I do not violate
the ASSOCIATION-CAUSATION FALLACY (The
false notion that association implies causality).
That is why I am being
extremely careful to reference economic models and
theories in my theoretical
explanations.
Therefore, in the absence
of additional testing or research to prove to the contrary, to reject this theoretical dialogue would represent a rejection of
TESTABLE HYPOTHESIS (An inference from a
theory that can be subjected to real-world testing) of the educational discipline of Economics.
Senator,
You indicated that you
had read the report commissioned by the Nebraska Hospital Association
and the AARP.
As Professors Allen
Jenkins, PH. D, Professor
of Economics and Ron
Konecny, PH. D, Professor
of Management both of
the University of Nebraska/Kearney stated, “One
must be careful to avoid
letting ideological positions influence the quantitative benefits”.
Professors Jenkins and
Konecny proceed to list
six ideological positions
taken by opponents of
Medicaid Expansion.
Your position on the
Medicaid Redesign Act
and statement that you
“are not comfortable with
an analysis that compares
an expansion of an entitlement program with economic development” aligns
with their ideological position bullet point number six: An argument that
Medicaid expansion is an
economic stimulus is misleading because the federal government will have
to borrow the money for
expansion.

Edition) authored by Ryan
C. Amacher, Professor of
Economics and Dean, College of Commerce and Industry; Clemson University and Holley H. Ulbrich,

TESTIBLE HYPOSTHESIS as opposed to partisan
ideology, will demonstrate
that Medicaid Expansion
(Medicaid Redesign Act) is
in fact an economic stimulus.

They represent a form of

DIARY OF A DAD
Discussions reveal passion
for Wildwood Golf Course
Since early November of
2014 I have been in conversations about the idea
of a sports destination in
Nebraska City; a one-stop
shop for baseball, softball,
soccer, running, and community events.
A lot of those conversations have been exciting
and life giving; some have
been frustrating and deflating.
Over the course of those
conversations, some with
community leaders, some
with UNL students, some
with planning firms, there
appeared, to me, a perfect
option in our wonderful
town for the creation of
this unique, inclusive catalyst to the next chapter in
our great history.
That option was to look
at the possibility of using
the land currently used
by Wildwood Golf Course
to be the new home of
what could be a focal point
of our community and
creating opportunities for
people of all ages to be
outside using facilities that
were modern, safe, and
inviting.
I began working with a
group of committed folks,
gathering numbers, look-
REV. GREG BOLT
ing at budgets, revenues,
profit and loss, a small
group of us even toured
other complexes to give
the students at UNL an
idea of what we were looking to create. As a former
athlete and someone who
likes to be outside, all of
these
conversations
brought me joy.
The majority of the folks
I talked to sounded like
they were also excited
about the possibilities.
After many public
meetings, hours of conversation, social media
posts, and energy spent in
creating a plan to look at
the possibility of using
Wildwood as one of three
possible locations for this
endeavor it all came to a
head on Monday night at
the Rowe Security Complex where a vote came
before the City Council to
approve around $20,000
of LB840 funds to do a
feasibility study of the
three proposed sites.
The place was packed.
Big Apple News Radio reported that “a record setting crowd of 130 people”
showed up to listen, to
speak, and to see what
the next step would be.
After over an hour of
questions, comments, and
discussion the City Council made their decision.
The voted 4-0 (Jeff Crunk
was not at the meeting) to
deny the request for the
LB840 funds to do the
feasibility study on the
possibility of a sports destination in Nebraska City.
I was disappointed because I think getting more
information is always better. I was disappointed
because I thought this was
a no brainer. I rarely think
shutting down conversation is helpful.
But…the sun came up
on Tuesday.
It’s obvious that Wildwood Golf Course has
support here in Nebraska
City; people don’t want
to lose it.
So here’s my challenge
to you.
Get out and use Wildwood Golf Course, play
rounds, walk the cart
paths, get out and use it.
We haven’t been using
it, that’s why the use of its
land was even on the
table.
If there is as much love
and devotion for that
course and what it means
to our town let’s prove it.
I’ll be out there this
week (it’s only $15.50 for
nine holes and a cart during the week), I’ll take my
kids out there. I hope to
see you out there.
Hit them straight!
At dinner every night,
my family goes around
the table and shares their
high points and low points
of the day. We call it “Favorite” and “Not Favorite”.
Here are my “Favorites”
and “Not Favorites” of the
week.
Favorite: The conversation and the passion
shown by those willing to
discuss the future of our
town.
Not Favorite: The personal attacks, threats, and
fear tactics used when
people disagree.
FROM THE GOVERNOR
Growing Nebraska off to great
start after Rickett’s first 100
The first 100 days of my
administration
have
moved quickly as we have
focused our priorities and
resources on a single goal:
Growing Nebraska.
As I have said before,
the key to growing our
state for the next generation starts with creating
jobs, lowering taxes, pushing back on regulation,
and expanding educational opportunities.
To achieve these goals
and objectives, we have
spent the first days of my
administration focused on
hiring transformational
and innovative leaders and
building a budget that reflects the fiscal restraint
we need to provide Nebraskans with the tax relief they need and deserve.
We are building a great
team. With the help of an
executive search firm and
the financial support of
Nebraskans across our
state, we were able to
identify directors for key
positions in the Nebraska
Department of Health and
Human Services, the Department of Corrections,
and the Department of
Economic Development.
GOV. PETE
RICKETTS
These leaders are already making a difference.
Here are just a few examples of the wonderful
work my team has been
doing these first few
months: DHHS CEO
Courtney Phillips announced with my office
just last week a new transparency initiative that creates public performance
metrics for ACCESSNebraska.
The data will be updated online every month.
This measure will help
hold the program’s performance accountable not
only to my office, but also
to the people of Nebraska
that this program serves.
In the Department of
Correctional Services, Director Scott Frakes is taking steps to upgrade software that calculates sentences to remove manual
processes and reduce the
probability of error in sentence calculations.
Finally, Nebraska Department of Economic
Development Director
Brenda Hicks-Sorensen
and Nebraska Department of Agriculture Director Greg Ibach are
planning the first trade
mission of my administration which will take us
to the European Union in
June to promote Nebraska business and agriculture.
As a part of my budget
recommendation, I put
forward a plan to slow the
growth of government and
provide tax relief – the “3
percent plan.”
If the Legislature holds
the line on spending to
around the 3 percent
mark that I recommended
in my budget while revenue continues to grow,
the difference can provide
tax relief to hardworking
Nebraskans. Nebraska’s
2015 Business Tax Climate Index ranking by the
Tax Foundation ranks us
at 29th for competitiveness.
If we plan to continue to
create good-paying jobs
for the next generation
and to stay competitive
nationwide and globally
long-term, our business
tax climate must improve.
I am pleased that the
Appropriations Committee has adopted my recommendation to transfer
an additional $60 million
a year into the Property
Tax Credit Relief Fund.
This represents a nearly 43 percent increase and
would bring the total
transfer to the fund for
the biennium to nearly
$400 million.
This is tax relief for all
property owners in Nebraska. While the full Legislature must still consider this recommendation,
this represents significant
property tax relief if adopted. There are additional
tax relief measures under
consideration in the Legislature for which I continue to advocate, and
there is still time for the
Legislature to provide additional property tax relief
this year.

ARBOR DAY
From page A1
“It’s been a labor of love for both of us,” said Fox of
his and Kemper’s combined 70 years of service. “We
want it to continue to prosper.”
Among the improvements Fox and Kemper have
made are reconstructing the fish pond, renovating
the greenhouse, formulating a comprehensive garden
plan and restoring the monument of J. Sterling
Morton that was originally dedicated by President
Grover Cleveland in 1905.
Fox and his wife, Cyndi, were instrumental in
starting the lodge’s annual Living History Days,
which take place in the fall. Last year marked the
31st year for the celebration, which helped bolster
tourism and revenue, said Laura Steinman, Arbor
Lodge coordinator.
Kemper would take part in the festivities by impersonating either J. Sterling Morton or his son,
Joy, he said. When he portrayed Joy Morton, Virginia
Ott would often take the part of J. Sterling Morton's
sister, Emma Morton.
Another thing Fox is most proud of in his years at
Arbor Lodge is the free tree giveaway for schoolchildren
during Arbor Day. After he and Kemper demonstrated
the proper way to plant a tree during the annual
school program, children could take a seedling home
to plant in their own yards.
Steinman said she’s heard about several of these
trees still being focal points of yards around Nebraska
City during Arbor Day Foundation meetings.
Meeting participants had to talk about a personal
experience with tree planting, she explained, and
several of them mentioned that the seedlings they
received as kids are growing in their yards or in their
parents’ yards years after Fox and Kemper planted
the seeds of knowledge during an Arbor Day demonstration.
“We wanted to incorporate everything back to the
turn of the century,” said Fox of his and Kemper’s
landscaping efforts at the lodge, adding that if a tree
had to be taken out because of damage or disease,
another was planted in its place.
COUNCIL
From page A1
Patrick Wehling of the Nebraska City Youth Baseball
program said the community's sporting programs
are steadily growing and Nebraska City has fallen
behind smaller communities who have "bigger and
nicer" facilities.
"I think that this shows the need for us as a community. We're growing," Wehling said. "In order to
get another three to four fields would be tremendous
because we could then host larger tournaments."
Resident Marty Stovall said upgrading youth athletic
facilities will promote economic growth.
"I just want to consider the economic impact it
could have on Nebraska City by upgrading the facilities," Stovall said. "Being in the kid business is
serious economic development. It just can't be discounted."
Those who voiced their opinions on the opposite
end said they don't reject the idea of promoting
more youth- and family-oriented events from coming
to town. But, rather, they are opposed to Wildwood
Golf Course being one of the three proposed locations
for the project.
The proposed construction would take place at
three locations - west of CHI Health St. Mary's, the
North Industrial area near the transfer station and
Wildwood Golf Course.
Wildwood golf pro Jon Casey said the golf course
is "one of the top nine-hole golf courses in the state
of Nebraska.
"I think we're doing a huge injustice if we just say,
'Start the bulldozers,' and just start whacking the
trees," Casey said. "I am not opposed to getting fun
stuff for kids, and hopefully for adults too, but I can
say from experience cutting down our trees, destroying
our beautiful park, Wildwood Golf Course, is not the
answer period."
Public Works Commissioner Jim Stark said he
would like to see the community's "passion" for this
discussion to spark the organization of a community
committee much like the one that was formed for
the construction of the new aquatic center.
"I'd like to see us harness this passion tonight to
get a group together and let's see what we come up
with and then talk about bringing in the expertise,"
Stark said.
New Mayor Bryan Bequette said he would like to
see the energy brought forth by the community
during Monday night's meeting continue to move
the project forward.
In other news, Bequette also announced during
the meeting that the original agenda items of appointing a new city administrator and city clerktreasurer wasn't going to happen at this time because
he needs more time to review the candidates.
Bequette was sworn in as Nebraska City's new
mayor during a special meeting the morning of April
15. Before his appointment, Finance Commissioner
Mindy Briley had been the acting mayor and had
been working diligently to not only fill the mayor
position, but other two as well. He told the audience
that he simply needed more time to interview the
candidates with commissioners.
"It is my intention to convene a special meeting
before our May 4 meeting to interview, as a council,
the top few candidates for each position. My not
making an appointment tonight is in no way a lack
of confidence in the applicants," Bequette said. "It is
solely due to the amount of time I've had to review
the process and my belief that a special meeting to
interview the group of candidates as a council is the
proper way to move ahead."
Bequette added that he intends for the special
meeting to take place within a week, but due to the
Kemper added that he and Fox made sure to keep
the mansion's interior accurate to the period of the
early 1900s. They had an inventory of household
goods to work with, and they researched subjects
such as color schemes and wall coverings. They also
talked to the Nebraska City Historical Society to
ensure the final look of the rooms "wasn't just something we dreamed up."
"It's a continual process to maintain it, make it
look nice and keep it up," said Kemper. "It's just like
anybody's older house. There's always something
that needs to be done.”
“One of the things that Randy and Mark have
been good at is encouraging volunteerism,” said
Friends of Arbor Lodge board member Joel Lundak,
himself a former recipient of the award. “Having
volunteers active out here actually increases your
work load, but it really is important in winning over
community support.”
Kemper said one of the most interesting parts of
his work at Arbor Lodge was meeting the guests,
from visiting dignitaries to ordinary tourists, who
came to the park and mansion, and the park staff
and community volunteers he worked with over the
years. "We had all kinds of people…the older people
and then the younger people we've seen grow up and
become outstanding adults in their communities,"
he added.
Fox credited the Friends of Arbor Lodge as being
instrumental in getting some improvement projects
completed, including the playground equipment, the
walkways and the water fountain.
The state of Nebraska turned control of Arbor
Lodge over to the Arbor Day Foundation/Arbor Day
Farm in 2014. At that time, Fox became superintendent of the Riverview Marina and the Southeast
Regional Maintenance Center. Kemper now works
at Indian Caves State Park in Auburn, where he supervises 3,400 acres, including the last of the great
deciduous forests in Nebraska.
"There's lots of things I've taken from Arbor Lodge
that we use down here," he said. "like the tree
planting, and some other things we'll be adding. It's
great being down here with a whole new set of challenges."
short notice to fellow commissioners and Arbor Day
weekend being this weekend that may not be possible.

SCHOOL BOARD
From page A1
"We want to do that through an environment in
which all kids have access to the technology to facilitate
those skills.
"We know that in our town, in our community, that
not all of those kids have that access. So we want to
provide every kid with the same access to where
teachers can no longer just stand and lecture and use
traditional methods anymore," Taylor added. "We can
start taking advantage of all of the technology that is
out there and the advantages that those bring to learning."
The pilot program consists of providing 320 Chromebooks to students. The estimated costs of the Chromebooks, insurance, management software, storage and
charging stations is about $104,000. The funding will
come from a Title 1 grant, a Title 1 Accountability
grant and the 2014-2015 General Fund Technology
Budget and Technology Cooperative budget.
Currently the school has about 265 devices in two
computer labs, one ChromeBase system in each classroom, six iPad carts and one Chromebook cart. Taylor
said some of the school's devices will be shifted to the
elementary schools and the high school.
Along with the pilot program, a new digital citizenship
curriculum, called Common Sense Media, will be required for all middle school students to take this fall
to teach them about eight different categories:
■ Internet safety,
■ Privacy and security,
■ Relationships and communication,
■ Cyberbullying,
■ Digital footprint and reputation,
■ Self-image and identity,
■ Information literacy,
■ And creative credit and copyright.
Taylor said middle school staff will be trained on
how to teach the Common Sense Media curriculum
and sixth-, seventh- and eighth-grade students will all
be taught five different lessons that are age appropriate.
"That will be one of the first things that we do when
kids come back to school," Taylor said. "Digital citizenship is a key first step into teaching our kids how
to behave with the device. It is still a school-owned
device; the kids do not own it.
"So this is our chance to teach them what's OK and
what's not OK," he added. "To where hopefully that
training will start spilling over to when they start
working with their own devices that they're making
better choices with them."
Students will not be allowed to take the Chromebooks
home.
The Common Sense Media curriculum is geared toward kindergarten through 12th-grade students with
the hope, if the pilot program is deemed successful, it
will branch out to the other Nebraska City Public
Schools.
Taylor talked to seventh-grade students the morning
of April 17 about the pilot program and the digital citizenship curriculum and what their role will be this
fall as eighth-graders.
Seventh-grader Max Chaney said April 17 his biggest
concern with using a Chromebook would be dropping
it. However, he said a Chromebook would reduce the
amount of students forgetting to bring their homework
to class.
"I think it's nice for every kid to have a Chromebook,"
Chaney said. "It would be easier because if you had
the Chromebook you'd just take it to your classes and
all of your worksheets from every class that you had
homework on would be on that device."
Classmate Ruby Lopez said the Chromebooks would
help students know when assignments are due and
also help them with not losing homework.
"A lot of kids tend to lose their homework if it's on
paper," Lopez said. "It's a lot easier to keep track of it
and know when it's due."
Lopez said her concern is with students not taking
care of the Chromebooks.
"It's a big privilege to have the teachers actually
trust us with a computer," she said.
Seventh-grader Aubrey Kasbohm is concerned about
walking in the hallway and dropping the Chromebook
after bumping into someone, but she thinks it will
help students stay focused in the classroom and create
less to carry from class to class for the teachers and
students.
"I think it's going to be easier and I also think it's
going to get kids focused more because I always get
distracted when I'm writing, but if I'm typing I just
think kids will focus better," Kasbohm said.
Taylor said April 17 that he had spoken with the
seventh-graders because he wants to involve them in
the pilot program this fall to be role models for the
younger students.
"So they can demonstrate what the right things are,
how to do it the right way and just give them to opportunity to just really own this," he said. "The eighthgraders we look at them for leadership, especially for
our younger kids coming in."
Chris Fletcher, the district's director of technology,
NCMS sixth-grade science teacher Elizabeth Dunn,
who is also a building representative on the district's
Technology Committee, and Jeremy Nielson, the state
coordinator for Common Sense Media Education Outreach, joined Taylor during the school board's April
13 meeting to present the Technology Pilot program
and new curriculum.
In other news, the NCPS school board also approved
the following items:
■ The resignations of Hayward Elementary School
special education teacher Maggie Johnson and reading
coach Mary Ann Athen, and Nebraska City High
School business teacher Judy Krenk;
■ Option enrollment requests for two Conestoga
Public Schools students for the 2015-2016 school year;
■ The NCHS 2015 graduation list of students;
■ The Nebraska Association of School Boards membership renewal of $5,551;
■ An Educational Service Unit No. 4 Core Services
resolution;
■ Magazine bid for libraries in the district's schools
for 2015-2016;
■ A foreign exchange student from Bavaria, Germany,
to attend school at NCPS for 2015-2016;
■ And a 4.8-percent total compensation package
salary increase for classified and administrative staff
for 2015-2016.
The school board's next meeting will be May 11 at 6
p.m. in the NCPS District Administration Building at
215 N. 12th St. The public is welcome to attend.

Pioneer girls fall short
at home against Titans
Julie Mancini
[email protected]
The Nebraska City girls’
tennis team lost its dual
to Norris 7-2 Tuesday at
the courts at Steinhart
Park.
“Norris took the early
lead 3-0 by winning all
three doubles matches,”
said head coach Dan
Holmberg.
“Both teams adjusted
their typical doubles lineups, and the new combinations worked better
for Norris than it did for
us.”
“We tried to get back in
it with wins at No. 1 and
No. 2 singles, but Norris
won the final four singles
matches to win 7-2,” he
added.
Winning for the Pioneers were No. 1 singles
player, Kendra McGinnis,
who won 8-6 over Kylie
Hohlen, and No. 2 singles
player Evy Causgrove, who
won 9-7 over Janelle
Adams.
“I was proud of the way
that Kendra and Evy
fought back in their singles
matches for victories in
matches that truly could
have gone either way,” said
Holmberg. “But they never
quit, even when shots
weren't falling in or momentum was on the other
side.
“The will to win is strong
in these two,” he continued. “They're a real pleasure to coach.”
The Pioneers played an
away dual at Blair Thursday and a home dual
against Brownell-Talbot
on Monday.
Look for results of those
matches in a future issue
of the News-Press.

The Nebraska City golf
team finished second in a
triangular against Sidney
and Waverly Monday at
Wildwood Golf Course.
The Waverly team shot
186 to take first place in
the event, 14 strokes better
than the Pioneers. The
Sidney team finished third
with a composite score of
225.
“We didn't play as well
up and down the lineup
as I would have hoped,”
said head coach Scott Kinnison. “ I thought Tom
Gress played a really good
round in the windy conditions.
“Aston Crum came back
after an ankle injury and
played well, considering
the layoff,” he continued.
“We just weren't consistent
on the day. We will have
a chance on Thursday to
improve on this performance. “
Individually, Tom Gress
took top honors with his
score of 42. The rest of
the team scores are as follows: Aston Crum, 50;
Loren Steinman, 53; Kyle
Francois, 55; and Ben
Miller, 65.
The Pioneers played a
triangular against Plattsmouth and Glenwood at
Glenwood Thursday. Look

The Nebraska City baseball team lost 15-2 to
Elkhorn Tuesday at Clemmy Holmes Field in Steinhart Park.
Nebraska City jumped
out to an early 1-0 lead in
the first, but Elkhorn
scored six runs in their
half of the second and never looked back. The Pioneers collected eight hits
in the game, but stranded
seven base runners.
“We are not playing very
good baseball right now,”
said head coach Tom
Bales. “We are making
the mistakes you might
expect early in the season
but not at this juncture.
“We just need to keep
working, get some things
straightened out and play
better baseball,” he added.
Offensively,
Bret
Kochanowicz went 2-for2 with a double. Brennen
Bales went 2-for-3 with
an RBI single, and Trey
Denniston also went 2for-3 with an RBI double
and a run scored.

Monday.

The Lourdes Central Catholic
girls’ track team finished fourth at
the Sacred Heart Irish Invitational
track meet, which took place at SD-A High School Tuesday.
The girls earned 62 points at the
meet, while the boys’ team finished
12th with five points. Pawnee City
won the girls’ team title with 117
points, and Syracuse won the boys’
team title with 137 points.
“We had some injuries on the
boys side that caused us to pull
some kids out of events,” said cocoach Jacob Staroscik.
“We would rather pull them out
now then aggravate things and make
them worse for later in the year,’
he added. “So that limited our point
totals for the boys.
“Brandon Fredrichs, a freshman,
stepped up big for us, though, and
got his first two individual medals
in the hurdle events,” he continued.
“It was great to see him succeed.”
On the girls’ side, Lourdes had
another great meet, said Staroscik.
“We had our usual medal winners
do well and got some points from
freshman Anna Heng in the 800,”
he said. “It was her first individual
medal of the year, so it’s good to
see her improving over the course
of the year.”
In the field events, Laura Box
broke the school record for the long
jump with her jump of 16-2.5, said
Staroscik.
“It’s always a great thing to break
school records,” he said. “We’re very
proud of Laura, her hard work at
practice is paying off big in the
meets.”
Medal winners for the Knights
were as follows:
Girls high jump: Katie O’Neil,
first place, 4’10”.
Girls long jump: Laura Box, third

Julie Mancini

The Nebraska City soccer teams came out on the
winning end of two double-overtime games recently.
On Monday night, the
visiting Pioneers boys’
team beat the Elkhorn
Antlers 3-2in a conference
game.
“Monday’s game was a
win against Elkhorn in
the second overtime,” said
head coach Jessica Rice.
“We started of the game
scoring two goals early-one was a penalty kick
from Killian Keetz after a
hand ball in the box, and
the second goal was scored
of a corner kick by Roberto
Silos.”
The Pioneers were up
2-0 in the second half
when Elkhorn scored two
back-to-back goals within
three minutes of each other, Rice continued.
“The game was tied 2-2
through the first overtime,
and with 1:25 left in the
second overtime, Juan Rodriguez scored the game-
Beki Warga assisted in scoring the Pioneers’ lone
goal against Auburn Tuesday. Tessa Kinart scored
the goal to give Nebraska City the win in double
overtime.
winning goal off a beautiful cross/assist from Killian Keetz,” she said.
“Our team played so
well,” she added. “It was
a fun win.”
On Tuesday, the Pio-
neers traveled to Lincoln
Lutheran and lost 2-0 to
the Warriors in a nonconference game.
“Lincoln
Lutheran
found the back of the net
twice within the first five
minutes of the game,” said
Rice.
On Monday night, the
Nebraska City girls’ team
lost a conference game at
home to Elkhorn, 6-0.
Tuesday’s home game
against Auburn had a different outcome. The 1-0
non-conference victory
came in double overtime
when Tessa Kinart scored
the goal off an assist by
Beki Warga, said head
coach Brian Hoover.
“We outshot Auburn 260 and played well,” he said.
“We just couldn't find the
back post.
“We are sitting in good
position moving into the
conference and district
tournament with the EMC
tournament beginning
next week,” Hoover added.
The Pioneers begin
Eastern Midlands Conference play Monday. Opponents and game locations
had not been determined
at press time.

tournament results in a
future issue of the NewsPress.

Methodists observe
40 days of kindness
Julie Mancini
[email protected]
The First United
Methodist Church of Nebraska City undertook a
“40 Days of Kindness”
project from February 1
to March 12 that involved
the congregation individually, in small groups
and as a whole.
Five
mother-anddaughter teams took
leadership roles in the
project, including Stacy
Blum and her daughter
Makensi; Dana Stovall
and her daughter Kelsie;
Melissa Turner and her
daughter Brenna; Julie
Little and her daughter
Kaili; and Stacie Higgins
and her daughter Chloe.
“It’s the first time for
that kind of dynamic in
a church group I’ve been
involved in,” said Higgins, who thought that
the project was a great
mother-daughter bonding opportunity.
The young women involved in the project
brought a different set
of skills than their mothers, said Stovall, including extensive knowledge
of social media that resulted in an online presence that included Facebook, Twitter and a project website, and a strong
design sense that resulted in a eye-catching Tshirt that members of
the congregation could
purchase to support the
project.
See KINDNESS, page B7
Mayhew
Cabin
Dear community
members,
Some of you are aware
that we have been in the
process of reviewing a major renovation of the
cave/tunnel area at the
Mayhew Cabin site. We
did receive some funding
from the Nelson Foundation very early last year to
have a limited study done.
The architect company
that has been working
with us is finalizing the
plan for the project after
we were given an estimated budget.
However, they have not
sent us the final agreement
and informed us that we
should close off the tunnel
and parts of the cave area
to the public.
We have done that per
their advice and this will
be the situation until the
fall (more than likely). I
have attached a simple
map that shows what areas are closed off. The
sleeping quarters area is
labeled closed, but still
can be viewed from where
are cut off point for the
public is.
In addition, the Mayhew
Cabin site itself is still
OPEN to the public. The
cabin and cellar area underneath remain open
along with the historic village and museum area.
Basically the tunnel area
and the ravine area are
closed off to the public.
If you have any questions, please email me or
call me during the day at
402-873-8374.

Nebraska City museums celebrate
opening with tour, presentation
Sandy Parmenter
[email protected]
During a recent Society
event, members of the Nebraska State Historical Society and trustees of the
Society and the Nebraska
State Historical Society
Foundation as well as some
local community members
got to preview Nebraska
City's Civil War Veterans
Museum, Kregel Windmill
Factory Museum, and Old
Freighters Museum before
season opening. After their
special tour of the museums, the group convened
at the Lewis and Clark Missouri River Visitors Center
to enjoy wine from Kimmel
Orchard and Vineyard and
appetizers prepared and
served by the Pantry of
Chris' Cuisines before hearing a presentation by Dr.
Gary Moulton.
Moulton is known as one
of the foremost experts on
the Lewis and Clark Expedition, and spent the last
20 years editing and publishing the journals from
that expedition. The result
of his long term effort is a
13 volume set of the journals for which he
was awarded the NU
Outstanding Research and
Creative Activity Award
and the J. Franklin Jameson Award of the American
Historical Association.
Moulton has served as consultant to the United States
Mint, National Geographic,
and Ken Burns based on
his knowledge of the Lewis
and Clark Expedition.
Moulton shared with the
group background information about how and why
he got started on the project
of editing the journals, and
some of the difficulties he
faced while doing so, as
well as some unique and
interesting facts about the
expedition itself.
Moulton said he started
out with only basic knowledge of the Expedition, but
knew enough to consult
with others in the fields of
botany, linguistics, cartog-
PHOTO SUBMITTED
raphy, etc. Because this
project was started in the
1980's, though, consulting
with others across the
country or world meant
doing so via letters back
and forth and phone calls,
in a painstakingly slow
process that the internet
generation could not possibly fathom today.
Moulton faced other issues, too, such as incomplete maps and journals
that had nothing written
in them for as long as nearly
a year. While Lewis and
Clark were both intelligent
men, they were not above
such common foibles as
spelling the word Sioux 27
different ways in their journals, either.
Moulton said that linguistics was one of the most
difficult tasks of editing the
journals throughout, and
those issues delayed every
volume.
According to Moulton,
Lewis made an impressive
effort to collect the vocabularies of the tribes he met
along the way, and they
met at least 50 tribes, but
he listened to the Indians,
wrote down what he heard,
then translated, and it was
not uncommon for things
to be lost at any of those
three points in translation.
Moulton had the difficult
task of trying to check his
translations after the fact,
and explaining what Lewis

Dr. Gary Moulton spoke to members of the Nebraska
State Historical Society Foundation at the Lewis and
Clark Missouri River Visitors Center.
had done.
Moulton's presentation
was engaging and informative, and made it clear
that what students learn
about the Lewis and Clark
Expedition in school is
merely the tip of the iceberg.
The journals, as edited
by Moulton, were published by the University of
Nebraska Press, and can
be purchased or can be
read online at lewisandclarkjournals.unl.edu.
The Nebraska State Historical Society Foundation,
which acts as the funding
arm of the Nebraska State
Historical Society, is a non-
profit organization that has
been dedicated to preserving, interpreting, and appreciating Nebraska history
for the last 73 years.
Donors to the Foundation
help support countless Nebraska State Historical Society programs, projects
and events.
New members to the Society are always welcome
and just a few of the benefits for full members include invitations to exhibit
openings, or tours such as
the one held in Nebraska
City on April 9, a subscription to the Nebraska History magazine and Nebraska History News mailed
quarterly, and free admission to NSHS historic sites
statewide.
The Foundation is making a concerted effort toward statewide outreach
and plans to increase its
presence with trips around
the state to places of historical interest.
Anyone interested in
learning more about the
Society or Foundation or
making a donation can call
Leslie Fattig at 402-4353535, email her at [email protected] or go to the
Foundation website at
www.nshsf.org, or the Society website at www.nebraskahistory.org.

FROM
TO
During these past few months, we made some
exciting announcements. A few weeks ago, my office
announced that Nebraska attained the lowest unemployment rate in the nation, and this month it dropped
even further to 2.6 percent.
Last week we revealed that Sheldon Station in
Hallam would become the first large utility to utilize
hydrogen which will be provided by the first clean
carbon black plant in the United States. This week, I
joined leaders from the University of Nebraska to
unveil Suji’s Korean Cuisine as the first international
business to join Nebraska Innovation Campus. These
stories are all great news for Nebraska and serve as
evidence that our state is growing and vibrant.
This is just the beginning of our quest to grow Nebraska. As we work together, I will continue to listen
to your ideas on how we can grow our state. Please
contact my office at 402-471-2244 or [email protected]. I look forward to hearing from you!

ASK AMY
How to bridge the tech gap
DEAR AMY: My wife and I are
tech-friendly boomers. We communicate with older and younger
generations of family.
The seniors want lengthy
phone calls and cards; most do
not have computers or any interest in acquiring them.
Those our age seem to be
cafeteria-style: some prefer a
combination of phone, email,
text; some also do cards, and
some Facebook, some not.
Younger folks prefer lots of text
and lots of Facebook.
We find that some members of
all generations get peeved when
the communication attempts are
not in the form they prefer. But
it’s hard to keep track of each
individual’s preferences. The
most annoying seems to be those
who text and expect an immediate response. They don’t seem
to realize that not everyone has
phones attached to them 24/7.
Advice and feedback, please. —
Tech Confused
DEAR CONFUSED: Your letter

communications crossroad
where we seem to be currently
paused, blinkers on, unsure of
which way to turn.
None of us can force others to
adopt communication devices
simply for our own convenience;
we can only face the consequences when our own choices
result in someone else being
unresponsive.
I believe that we should do
our best to respect the comfort
of the generation preceding us.
That means that you talk to your
folks by phone and that your kids
will occasionally be frustrated
because you aren’t available to
respond instantly to every text.
Your response can be, “Oh well,
you’re young and smart. I’m sure
you can figure out another way to
get in touch.”

Today’s Birthday (04/24/15).
Your universe centers on home this
year. Balance a new phase in your
work with health and family time.
Rigorous scheduling and budgeting pays off. Take on projects
domestically and in your community. Launch bigger actions after
June 14. A new fun (and romantic)
phase arises after October 13. Plan
a peaceful retreat for after October
27. Nurture each other.
Aries (March 21-April 19) — Talk
with your family to resolve a breakdown. Stick close to home. Order
what you need to be delivered.
Make the long-distance call. Watch
for hidden danger.
Taurus (April 20-May 20) — It’s
a wonderful day for writing. Don’t
give away all the plot. Record your
thoughts, as a first draft. Plot your
course, but then let it take you
where it does.
Gemini (May 21-June 20) —
Make it look easy. Innovations
upset the routine. It’s okay if others
seem critical. This idea could be
wildly profitable.
Cancer (June 21-July 22) — Take
it slow and watch for potholes.
Pay attention and avoid accidents.
Make strides on a personal project.
Communication connects.
Leo (July 23-Aug. 22) — Don’t
take your health for granted. Talk
to someone you trust. Conditions
seem unsettled. Working at home
can be profitable and convenient.
Rest when your body tells you to.
Virgo (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) —
Communication is the key to
supercharging a community
project. Share about what could be
possible.
Libra (Sept. 23-Oct. 22) —
Sensitive feelings could cause a
breakdown at work. Talk it over.
It’s not a good time for travel, with
road hazards and delays possible.
Scorpio (Oct. 23-Nov. 21)
— Explore a side of your neighborhood you hadn’t seen before.
Exotic flavors and ambiance
doesn’t need to cost a fortune or
hours of travel.
Sagittarius (Nov. 22-Dec. 21)
— Talk over immediate financial
necessities with your partner. Make
home decisions. Correct a misconception. Speak privately, before
announcing any plans.
Capricorn (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) —
Have a heart-to-heart conversation
with your partner. Get a problem
out in the open. Establish boundaries. Don’t assume you know
everything.
Aquarius (Jan. 20-Feb. 18) —
Your creative work is in demand.
Strengthen your infrastructure and
ask for support if you need it. Keep
to orthodox solutions, for now.
Pisces (Feb. 19-March 20) — Play
with your favorite people. Learn a
new game from someone fascinating. Teach one you know well, and
discover unexplored facets.
Squatters, marijuana
found at apartment
Nikki Carlson
[email protected]
A landlord of a Nebraska City apartment
complex met with the
Nebraska City Police
Department about
squatters living in an
apartment.
According to an affidavit, NCPD officers
met with the landlord
at 10 a.m. on Monday
at the apartment complex. Francisco Pascual,
answered the door. Officers noticed "several
other persons in the
living room."
During a search of
the apartment, officers
found a "jar full of marijuana and a blue bong
on the coffee table." A
clear bong was found
on the kitchen counter,
and an officer found
KINDNESS
From page A1
The six-week program,
which is a Nebraska City
exclusive, started with a
focus on kindness toward
family members. The second week revolved around
kindness toward friends,
followed by kindness toward school/work /church
members in Week 3. The
fourth week involved kindness in the community,
followed by kindness in
the world. The project concluded with a celebration
service at the church on
March 15.
During the program,
church members were involved individually, in
small groups and as an
entire congregation in performing acts of kindness.
On an individual level,
members were given a
bracelet with the hashtag
dosomethingnow. They
were to put it on their left
wrist to start the day because their act of kindness
was still “left” to do, explained Stovall. After the
act was completed, the
bracelet moved to the right
wrist because being kind
was the “right” thing to
do, she continued.
Participants also received 40 Pass It On cards
that they were to share
with the community as
they performed their kind
acts, said Stovall. The
cards encouraged the recipient to pass the kindness on.
Participants were also
supposed to share their
kind acts via social media
or by dropping a note in
the “Jar of Kindness” at
the church.
The most difficult part
of the individual program
was getting participants
to share what they did,
said Higgins. “People liked
"numerous individual
baggies of marijuana"
in an upstairs bathroom cabinet.
Pascual was arrested
at 10:20 a.m. on suspicion of possession of
marijuana with the intent to distribute, a
Class 3 felony. According to the affidavit, the
other individuals in the
apartment were cited
on suspicion of possession of marijuana.
Pascual's first appearance in the Otoe
County Courtroom was
Monday. He could be
facing a maximum of
20 years in prison, a
$25,000 fine or both
for the Class 3 felony.
His bond was set at
$5,000. Pascual's preliminary hearing has
been scheduled for May
18 at 1:30 p.m. in county court.
telling us what they received, but not what they
did,” she said.
In the small-group portion of the program, the
groups met weekly to devise and undertake mission projects within the
community. One of these
was to provide hand and
foot warmers to the Nebraska City Police Department, and the warmers
came at an ideal time: just
before officers were deployed for an extended period of time on an extremely cold day.
When the project began,
the committee thought
that the congregation
would undertake a single
church-wide project but,
after receiving suggestions
from members, they decided to do three: care
packages for deployed
service members, gift bags
for members who have
attending
difficulty
church, and cookie boxes
that were distributed
around the community to
non-members.
The variety of projects
allowed church members
of all ages to participate,
said Higgins, from writing
notes of support to service
people to packing care
packages and gift bags to
helping deliver the goodies
locally.
“We sent about 100
pounds of food to service
members, gave about 50
gift bags to members and
distributed more than 40
boxes of cookies,” said Stovall.
Even though Lent has
passed, the committee
plans to keep the kindness
going throughout the year.
Other churches and
community groups have
inquired about the program, which Stovall and
Higgins would like to see
grow to include churches
and schools in the Nebraska City area.
NCPD executes search warrant, arrest
ed a search warrant at the
property at 3:40 p.m.
Pierce was located on the
property in a trailer that
he was living in. In the
trailer, officers found a
small baggie with white
residue that had field tested
positive for methamphetamine.
NCPD officers also found
a plastic case with two bow
and arrows and a red shotgun reloader under a bridge
at an adjacent lot.
"Both these items were
verified as items we had
stolen in a burglary of a
residence in Nebraska City
on April 1, 2015," the affidavit stated.

A search warrant at a
Nebraska City residence
led to the arrest of three
Nebraska City men April
17.
Kory Pierce, 26, Russell
Linthicum, 37, and Roger
Ulfers, 67, were all arrested
on suspicion of possession
of methamphetamine,
Class 4 felonies.
Pierce was also arrested
on suspicion of possession
of stolen property, which
is a Class 3 felony.
According to an affidavit,
Nebraska City Police Department officers conduct-
Nebraska City High
School senior Stephen
Conner was awarded the
Hap and Grace Stansberry
Memorial scholarship for
$1,000.
Conner is the son of
Robert and Pam Conner.
He plans on attending MidAmerica Nazarene University. His major is yet
to be decided.
Ulfers made their first appearances in the Otoe
County Courtroom Monday. All three could be facing a maximum of five
years in prison, a $10,000
fine or both for the Class 4
felony charge.
Additionally, Pierce
could also be facing maximum of 20 years in prison,
a $25,000 fine or both for
the Class 3 felony charge.
Pierce's, Linthicum's and
Ulfers' preliminary hearings are scheduled for May
