DONATE WITH CARE Attorney General Doug Peterson reminds Nebraskans to donate with care and avoid charity scams in response to recent weather damage and flooding. “In the coming days, it is critical that we reach out and help our communities affected by the devastating floods,” said Attor-ney General Peterson. “One of my responsibilities is to help Nebras-kans recognize and avoid disaster-related, fundraising scams.” Fol-lowing a few simple steps can help ensure that your donations reach those in need: It is best to donate to organizations whose reputations you are familiar with and those having a local presence. Be cautious about fundraising efforts initiated on social media with no known ties to an established organization or local charity. Carefully evaluate the charity before making a donation. Resources such as Charity Navigator, GuideStar, IRS Select Check, the National Center for Charitable Statistics, and the BBB Wise Giving Alliance all provide information about established charities. Designate the disaster so you can ensure your funds are going to disaster relief, rather than a gen-eral fund.
EFFORTS TO ASSIST RANCH FAMILIES As the threat to human lives from the last week’s storms that engulfed the state has begun to subside, the Nebraska Department of Agricul-ture (NDA) will now be concentrating efforts to assist our ranch fami-lies and their livestock. Producers that have been impacted by the blizzard and flooding and are now in need of hay, feed stuffs, fenc-ing materials, volunteer help, equipment, etc. should call the Ne-braska Department of Agriculture at 1-800-831-0550. Be prepared to share your name, contact information, type and number of live-stock, location (including county), what assistance you are seeking and how urgent your need is. Nebraska has been overwhelmed with the outpouring of support for our producers. If you have hay, feed stuffs, fencing materials, equipment, etc. that you are willing to do-nate, please contact the Nebraska Department of Agriculture at 1-800-831-0550. Be prepared to share your name, contact informa-tion and what you have that you are willing to donate and the amount, along with your location.
SUPPORT A GREAT CAUSE On Tuesday, April 2nd Runza® Restaurants across Nebraska and Iowa will be donating 10% of all proceeds to the TeamMates Men-toring Program. The effort is part of Runza’s belief that it takes more than food to serve a community. Support a great cause with a great meal. “Runza® Restaurants is proud to take an active role in each and every community we serve. More than a responsibility, it’s our privilege to positively impact the lives of our neighbors,” said Becky Perrett, Director of Marketing at Runza® National. 80 Runza® locations will be participating in TeamMates Day. “We are so grateful to Runza® for supporting our local chapters across Ne-braska and Iowa. TeamMates and Runza® are two organizations founded in Nebraska and we are honored to be able to partner together to support our youth,” said Sarah Waldman, Executive Di-rector of the TeamMates Mentoring Program. Founded in 1949, Runza® Restaurants is famous for the Runza® Sandwich with its deli-cious blend of ground beef, cabbage, onions and secret spices baked inside homemade bread; made-to-order hamburgers; and homemade onion rings.

INTERESTING FACT
If a statue in the park of a person on a horse has both front legs in
the air, the person died in battle. If the horse has one front leg in the air, the person died as a result of wounds received in battle. If the
horse has all four legs on the ground, the person died
of natural causes.
SPORTS The McCook Community College baseball team salvaged the
final game of a three-game series against Southeast Commu-
nity College Monday, 7-5. The Storm won the first two games
of the series 3-2, and 11-9. “It was good to get back on the
winning side of things,” MCC Coach Jon Olsen said. “Getting
walked off in the bottom of the 7th was a tough one to swal-
low yesterday, and then losing game 2 as well.” MCC snaps a
five-game losing streak and improves to 6-10 on the season.
The Indians are headed to Colby Wednesday to play Colby
Community College but coaches are still trying to figure out a
schedule to accommodate Northeast Community College in a
triangular. Game times are pending. They will be posted as
soon as the schedule is set.
The McCook Community College softball team began their
spring-break trip with a pair of losses to Howard College
Monday, 8-0 and 4-3. The Lady Indians were limited to one
hit in the opener and despite a pair of home runs from fresh-
man Emma McLean, (Willetton, Western Australia) in the
second game, the Lady Indians fell short. McLean went four-
for-five on the day. Howard improves to 16-7 on the season.
The Lady Indians fall to 7-13 and continue the Texas road-
trip Tuesday with a pair of games at Midland College (15-7).
MCC will be on the road Saturday and Sunday for a pair of
Region IX doubleheaders at Trinidad State (11-14) Saturday
at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. and Sunday at 10 a.m. and noon.
