Results: Nebraska Lineworker Rodeo Results

Team SPPD gave it their all, and it shows!

The Nebraska Lineworkers Rodeo was held at the Custer County Fairgrounds in Broken Bow, Nebraska on July 30, 2021. This year, we were proud to have six men participating in the event, and each one put forth a tremendous effort in the competition. Participating for the first time were Apprentice Lineworkers Cal Narber and Jacob Kubicka. Four men participated in the Journeyman Team Division, with Sam Gnagy and Tyler Fuelberth teaming up for the first time, and Myles Butt and Travis Forbis returned to the arena to test their skills.

As you can see from the photo below, their efforts were quite incredible!

Be aware of electrical hazards after a flood. Downed power lines could be hidden by standing water, and the lines could still be energized: http://ow.ly/RE0p50N7Boj #SafeElectricity #FloodSafety #SPPD #PublicPower #PoweringaBrighterFuture
