Thank A Farmer
Contest Winner
Nebraska Public Power District (NPPD) shined the safety spotlight during planting season on a special radio campaign. The “Nominate Your Favorite Farmer” contest, in cooperation with News Channel Nebraska, ran for six weeks in three regions. Six winners, two per region, were selected to receive recognition and a prize package containing a $200 Tractor Supply gift card and public power swag.
The public was asked to nominate their favorite farmer during planting season. The contest was to express gratitude to farmers and spread the important message of safety around powerlines, not only during planting season, but to always be cautious near powerlines.
Following the 53rd Nation- al Rural Utilities Coopera- tive Finance Corporation (CFC) Annual Member- ship Meeting, on June 20, 2022, the CFC Board of Directors elected Bruce Vitosh as President. CFC is guided by a 23-member board of directors that represents ten geograph- ically defined districts. Vitosh represents District 7 which incorporates Ne- braska, Kansas, Colorado and Wyoming.
