&#8220;It's for Chris Moninger and his wife Debby. Chris has to have another corneal transplant and this is just to raise money to help with their funds because he hasn't been able to work for a while,&#8221; said Julie Toline with the Broken Bow Lions Club.
Sunday's plans include a free will donation featuring pulled pork with sides and a dessert meal. Those attending are welcome to bring a dessert to share with them that can be put out on the table.
A silent auction is also part of the plans for Sunday. Those that wish to donate to it are encouraged to call Julie Toline at 402-677-9323 or Dell Moninger 308-870-4150.
Those that can't attend the fundraiser on Sunday can still support Chris and Debby by contributing to a benefit account at Nebraska State Bank named 'Chris Moninger Benefit Account'.

                                                    <description><![CDATA[A 57 year old Sioux Falls, South Dakota man suffered life threatening injuries in a single vehicle semi truck crash Tuesday afternoon in rural Custer County.
The Custer County Sheriff's Office (CCSO) responded to the crash at approximately 12:44 PM on Sargent Road near road 814 east of Milburn Road.
According to the sheriff's office, Michael Johnson was driving a 2022 Volvo semi truck pulling a 53 foot trailer eastbound on Sargent Road when the vehicle left the road on a curve. The trailer struck a large tree in the ditch and separated from the truck, which continued down an embankment and rolled, ejecting Johnson.
A responding sheriff's deputy found Johnson, the lone occupant of the truck, down a steep embankment, entangled in a barbed wire fence and partially pinned beneath debris. The deputy freed Johnson and repositioned him to assist with his breathing until emergency medical personnel arrived.
Johnson was transported by Merna Rescue to Melham Medical Center in Broken Bow before being flown to a Kearney hospital for further treatment.
An investigation, which is still ongoing, determined Johnson was not wearing a seatbelt at the time of the crash.
The Anselmo Fire Department, Merna Fire Department, Broken Bow Police Department, and Hunter's Towing all had personnel that assisted in addition to Custer County Communications.

                                                    <description><![CDATA[With Halloween right around the corner, some area communities are organizing opportunities for kids and families to enjoy the holiday in a safe way.
Trunk or Treat events, which give a safe and compact environment for costumed kids to walk from car to car gathering treats, are becoming more and more popular across the country every year. Proponents applaud them as a safe alternative to trick-or-treating at night after the sun has set, or as an option earlier in the day for younger kids.
The community of Arnold is having their Trunk or Treat event on south Walnut street starting at 6:30 PM on Thursday the 29th. Those that line the street with their trunk themes (whether spooky, silly magical, or totally unique) will be entered into a 'best decorated trunk' competition with a $25 chamber bucks prize.

A glow stick hunt will also be happening in Arnold. Those that find a glow stick with a pumpkin attached will win $7 in Rialto Theatre bucks. Twenty glow sticks total will be hidden and the prize can be claimed with Taylour Snyder.
In Broken Bow, the downtown square will be bustling with kids and adults alike in costumes on Friday the 30th from 3 until 5 PM. Themed trunks will be lined up around the square and businesses throughout the downtown business district will all be handing out a wide variety of treats and toys.

                                                    <description><![CDATA[Nebraska cornerback Andrew Marshall earned a pair of honors this week, as he was named a first-team mid-season All-American by both On3 and Sports Illustrated.
Marshall, a 6-foot, 195-pound senior from Eastvale, Calif., has anchored a Blackshirts defense which ranks in the top 20 in total defense (11th, 271.3 ypg), turnover margin (13th, +.86) and scoring defense (16th, 15.4 ppg) entering this week's action.
On the season, Marshall has started all seven games for the Huskers and recorded 21 tackles, four pass breakups and an interception.  According to Pro Football Focus, he has allowed just eight catches on 27 total targets through the first seven contests. Despite seeing a limited amount of targets, he has four or more tackles three times this season, including each of the last two weeks.  He is ranked as the nation's top cornerback in the Pro Football Network Impact Rankings.
Marshall has started all 20 games since arriving on campus before the 2025 season. He was an honorable-mention All-Big Ten pick as a junior totaling 45 tackles, including four tackles for loss, four pass breakups and an interception.
