“Curbside!” Three or four Pine Ridge Job Corps students intercept a patched-up 1950’s pickup

after a lull during the April community recycling event in downtown Chadron. Each grabs a bag,

maybe an armload of newspapers or cardboard, making a quick deposit in the sorting area.

Containers returned, the driver is on his way in five minutes flat – my estimate sans a

Just over a dozen different young adults from Job Corps have served as volunteers at Keep

Chadron Beautiful’s monthly event since this past winter. This USDA Forest Service center is

well-known for its community service. Throughout the years I have seen students on numerous

occasions in Box Butte and Dawes Counties doing everything from rehabbing a school art

building at the fairgrounds to removing litter along Highway 385. Mary Meier, who works at Job

Corps and the Keep Alliance Beautiful recycling center, has been a more recent connection. Not

only spearheading an additional service/education opportunity for the students in Chadron, she

brought a crew to help at the recycling center a couple weeks ago.

Alliance and Chadron’s respective Keep America Beautiful affiliates forged a partnership in

2023 where KAB has lent its support and expertise as our neighbors reboot the availability of

public and business recycling. On the majority of the public events I have traveled up with one

of our green trailers. Initially, KChB board members and a few other adult volunteers manned

the event. College-age kids showed up in droves one Saturday at the fairgrounds as every

vehicle attracted a host of helpers from either the Job Corps or Chadron State Eagles football

team – the former group expects to contribute longterm.

At the most recent recycling curbside opportunity, I worked with Mary to visit with several of the

students. As things wound down, I met: Eulalie Nduwamungu, from Bellevue, Neb., Business

Administration; Aldair Huitron, Omaha, carpentry; Venae Shelly, Omaha, Union Painting;

Johntavius Toole, Lincoln, Painting; Leon Clauson, Deshler, Facility Maintenance; and Cason

Fisher, Fairbury, Not Assigned (currently in 60-day Career Preparation phase). Eulalie said she

decided to take part because “I wanted to help.” Johntavius said it is a good way to “give back to

the community” while Aldair pointed out that assisting with local recycling reflects on the Job

Corps’ “good reputation” and is “good for the planet.” They all agreed that it has been fun and

In addition to taking advantage of the opportunity to serve – and have time off campus,

Johntavius said they are learning to recycle as well. Mary agreed. “We are assisting the

community we live in,” she said. “I wanted them to see the waste out there, way we recycle it,

help out the landfill, save the Earth’s space. Wanted them to recognize the waste we have on

our own campus and recycle there as well.”

Anyone can learn to recycle, yet “Working with the people is way better (to) adapt to changes

and organizations,” Johntavius said. “(We want to) keep it clean, keep it organized, keep it

fresh,” Venae added. “Even a little thing makes a big impact,” Eulalie emphasized.

Students who have been to Alliance to process recyclables or Chadron for curbside collection

are able to apply time to required hours. “It helps us to build our work-based hours,” Mary said,

explaining the overall hours logged helps in their respective rank among 24 Centers nationwide.

A group of 10 students at the recycling center made an impressive impact in just four hours as

they processed 16 boxes of primarily curbside bags and completed a bale of cardboard. Mary

said one of the best aspects has been a first-hand education of where materials such as

cardboard, plastic and glass go on their first step to becoming something else. Also, a

community member cooked for them and they were “delighted in that, very much so,” she said.

The students have been asking when the next event is, Mary noted. She said they plan to

“You get to know the people in the community more. I really enjoyed doing this,” Johntavius

said. “We like to get students involved anytime we have a project and like to get the word out for

people to recycle and spread the awareness.”

Alliance, NE – Snow-Redfern Foundation is honored to announce seven talented High School Seniors selected as scholarship recipients for the Snow-Redfern Foundation managed scholarship funds.

Two young people were selected by the Snow-Redfern Foundation Scholarship Review Circle to receive the Hempel Family Scholarship in the fall of 2024. Addisyn Muhr, of Alliance, will be attending the University of Nebraska at Lincoln to study Pre-Health Radiology. Aiden Benda, of Hemingford, will be attending the University of Nebraska at Lincoln to pursue a degree in Finance.

Five students were selected for the K.M. Dahlstedt Scholarship to be awarded for the fall of 2024. Brookelynn Warner, of Hemingford, will be attending Laramie County Community College to pursue a degree in Animal Sciences. Camden Wade, of Alliance, will be pursuing a degree in Comic Design at Joe Kubert School of Cartoon and Graphic Art in New Jersey. Holden Schultz, of Broadwater (Bridgeport High School), will pursue a Business &amp;amp; Theology degree from Chadron State College. Regan Braun, of Alliance, will attend the University of Nebraska at Kearney to pursue a nursing degree. Kalli Bridge, of Alliance, will attend the University of Nebraska at Lincoln to pursue a degree in Nutrition and Health Science.

Preference for the scholarships is given to seniors who attend high school in Box Butte or Morrill Counties and plan to pursue careers in trades or careers related to agriculture or STEM, as well as students that will attend college in Nebraska, or return to Nebraska upon obtaining their degree.

This year’s Scholarship Review Circle included Snow-Redfern Foundation board members- Rob Eirich (Scottsbluff), Teresa Sanders (Alliance), Karla Bennetts (Kearney), and Andrew Hunzeker (Scottsbluff). This year additional voice was integrated into decision-making, including Kevin Dahlstedt of the K.M. Dahlstedt (formerly of Alliance) scholarship fund and two college first-year students that completed Snow-Redfern’s Root2Rise Young Women’s Leadership experience and scholarship award in 2023: Arielle Lawrence, now a freshman at UNK, and Kierra Miller, a freshman at Dakota State University.

“We value youth voice, community wisdom, and meaningful engagement and have been exploring all ways in which we can infuse our work and decision-making processes with the lived experience of those that are most impacted by our funds,” shared Executive Director, Sara Wilcox.

The scholarship awards are intended to pay homage to our roots as Nebraska Boys Ranch which instilled ranching values for over 70 plus years providing kids with the skills they need to be successful throughout their lives. The scholarship also emphasizes the simple concept of providing opportunity to kids who want to return to their rural communities to share their skills and education.

The Hempel Family Scholarship award has been an ongoing and generous gift honoring Mr. and Ms. Hempel, who were consistently generous contributors to Snow-Redfern Foundation, formerly the Nebraska Boys Ranch. Mr. Hempel was a long-time board member and he and his family supported the youth at Nebraska Boys Ranch through service and contributions intended to impact the lives of the youth placed at the Ranch. The K.M. Dahlstedt Scholarship was developed two years ago in partnership with the Dahlstedt family, who desired to honor their father and husband through awards focusing on the future success of students pursuing trades in our community.

“We are honored to offer this opportunity to Addiysn, Brookelynn, Cameron, Holden, Aiden, Regan, and Kalli. We honor the legacies of Edward M. and Eda S. Hempel and K.M. Dahlstedt who possessed impressive qualities of leadership, service, and dedication to academic studies by investing in our younger generation,” commented Mara Andersen, Board President of Snow-Redfern Foundation. “This year’s recipients demonstrated incredible commitment to their futures, their families, and their communities, and we wish them well on their future academic pursuits.”

Snow-Redfern Foundation believes in the power of opportunity and invites those interested in creating impact for youth to Join them in investing in the good life for kids.

CHADRON – An eagle feather ceremony in honor of Chadron State College graduating senior Vernon Plenty Bull of Allen, South Dakota, took place in Armstrong Gym April 28.

According to Plenty Bull, eagle feather ceremonies are traditionally hosted by Native American groups to honor individuals for significant accomplishments. Plenty Bull’s ceremony was in honor of his upcoming graduation.

The ceremony was conducted by medicine man Steve Dubray, who is Plenty Bull’s uncle. Other family members also participated by joining in the processional and speaking. His parents, Pete and Mary Plenty Bull, presented him with a star quilt.

During the ceremony, a drum circle performed a song specific to graduation, according to Dubray.

Dubray praised his nephew for putting in early mornings, late nights, and lots of hard work to obtain his degree making him especially deserving of the honor.

Director of Project Strive/TRiO Jen Schaer admires Plenty Bull’s growth and involvement on campus.

“Vernon has come a long way since he started at CSC,” Schaer said. “His passion for learning and growing as a person has led to his success. Vernon has pushed himself and has been a Resident Assistant in Housing, worked security, and has been active in many clubs and Project Strive. He loves to write, and his passion took him to the Story Catcher writing workshop last summer. Writing is a great way for Vernon to express himself and gives him an outlet.”

Schaer believes Plenty Bull deserved the eagle feather.

“A feather-tying ceremony is a wonderful way to celebrate Vernon’s accomplishments and his graduation. He is paving the path for his younger siblings, cousins, and relatives in his family.&nbsp; I can’t wait to see what the future holds for Vernon,” Schaer said.

Veterans Service Office to hold job fair in Chadron for vets

By TENA L. COOK, CSC MARKETING COORDINATOR

CHADRON – Chadron State College’s Health Professions students advancing to professional schools were honored during a banquet at Country Kitchen last week.

The guest speaker was an alumnus of the program, Joseph Keating of Casper, Wyoming. He will graduate from the University of Washington Medical School and has been accepted to Vanderbilt University for Anesthesiology.

Keating said the opportunity to speak eight years after advancing through the program was a valuable time to reflect and offer advice.

“Professional school will be a rough adjustment. There will be lots of studying, exams, and the stress that comes with that. Chadron is an excellent program. You already have the skills you need to adapt to the academic rigor. If you can swing it here, you will do just fine,” Keating said.

Keating offered several tips to the students.

“It’s okay to cry with your patients, but don’t cry first, and don’t cry the loudest,” he said. “Medical school exposed me to more humanity than I ever could have prepared for. People come to you for help at their most vulnerable. It is an incredible privilege and an incredible burden.”

He advised the students to carve out time to deal with their emotions.

“Take care of yourself. No matter how unaffected you may feel by inevitable tragic patient encounters, when it rains, everyone gets wet,” Keating said. “You made the right choice, this field is so worth it. You meet people who will inspire you with the way they overcome seemingly insurmountable adversity.

Buckle up. Your life will never be boring.”

If you can swing it here, you will do just fine,” Keating said.Keating offered several tips to the students.“It’s okay to cry with your patients, but don’t cry first, and don’t cry the loudest,” he said. “Medical school exposed me to more humanity than I ever could have prepared for. People come to you for help at their most vulnerable. It is an incredible privilege and an incredible burden.”He advised the students to carve out time to deal with their emotions.“Take care of yourself. No matter how unaffected you may feel by inevitable tragic patient encounters, when it rains, everyone gets wet,” Keating said. “You made the right choice, this field is so worth it. You meet people who will inspire you with the way they overcome seemingly insurmountable adversity.Buckle up. Your life will never be boring.”Students by Discipline and Professional SchoolChiropracticAlli Novak of Dorchester, Neb.: Cleveland ChiropracticDentistryUniversity of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC)Jamie Graff of Gothenburg, Neb.Jaylee Shaw of Sidney, NebAshley Christianson of Lusk, Wyo.: Kansas City UniversityJordan Nwalor of Gilbert, Ariz: University of HoustonDental HygieneKayla Brown of Glendive, Mont.: Sheridan CollegeMedicineCreighton Harrington of Loup City, Neb.: UNMCVelvet Jessen of Harrold, S.D.: University of South Dakota Sanford MedicineMedical Laboratory ScienceSheila Renteria-Salgado of Norfolk, Neb.: UNMCNursingUNMC ScottsbluffAlexandra Coffman of Ogallala, Neb.Natalie Keenan-Vergil of Bridgeport, Neb.Katelyn Ott of Morrill, Neb.Lacie Vach of Peetz, Colo.Andrea Pearson of Gillette, Wyo.Taigen Ruff of Sutherland, Neb.Mariah Markus of Loup City, Neb.: Creighton UniversityPharmacyMorgan Jaggers of Sidney, Neb.: UNMCAubrey Stromberg of Columbus, Neb.: University of WyomingPhysical TherapyAshley Dearmont of Loup City, Neb.: UNMCKatherine Meuret of Norfolk, Neb.: UNMCKarissa Rasmussen of Camp Crook, S.D.: University of South DakotaPhysician AssistantUNMCCarlee Brownawell of Hershey, Neb.Quinn Koop of Madrid, Neb.Grace Redinger of Hastings, Neb.Podiatric MedicineEmily Evans of North Platte, Neb.: Barry UniversityRadiology TechnologyRegional West Medical CenterShelby Bewley of Gering, Neb.Jacob Cormack of Severance, Colo.Breeanna Meats of Craig, Colo.Sarah Wallace of Newell, S.D.Jordan Economou of Chadron: Bellin CollegeMcKenzie Andrew of Sidney, Neb.: UNMCRespiratory TherapyClaire Lindsay of Wayne, Neb.: Nebraska MethodistVeterinary MedicineAlexa Shald of O’Neill, Neb.: UNL or Iowa State UniversityBrianna Smith of Vivian, S.D.: Oklahoma State UniversityVeterinary TechnicianKayden Singpiel of Scottsbluff, Neb.: Eastern Wyoming CollegeDoctoral ProgramsKinsley Mason of Chadron: University of South CarolinaEmmanuella Tchona of Republic of Benin: University of Wisconsin Medical CollegeGunnar Wainscott of Newcastle, Wyo.:&nbsp; Fort Hays State UniversityCareerCarolyn Drake of Omaha, Neb.: AmeriCorps College Possible TeamBryan Zutavern of North Platte, Neb.: North Platte Public Schools
