LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) This June, the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC) and Nebraska Extension is hosting a statewide tractor safety course for teens.
This tractor safety training course will be held at five sites in Nebraska for teens ages 14 and 15 from June 7 to 11.
The first day of the course will be online, then the required driving test will be offered in person, with COVID-19 safety precautions.
Federal law prohibits children under 16 from using certain farm equipment unless their parents or legal guardians own the farm. However, certification received through the course grants an exemption to the law allowing 14- and 15-year-olds to drive a tractor and do fieldwork with some equipment.
Legacy of the Plains Museum recently received a $10,000 donation from B&C Steel. David Wolf, Executive Director, was pleasantly surprised to receive the generous donation. “We would like to thank B&C Steel for their generous donation. They continue to be a huge supporter of our community, and they should be recognized for it.” Wolf said [.]

During the presentation at the Legacy of the Plains Museum, Committee Vice-Chair Dave Wolf said the funding was in line with a change to the committee’s strategic plan made a few years ago, which increased the emphasis on youth sports and their impact.
“So, the 23 Club is a perfect example of being able to host tournaments where hotels can be booked up for that whole weekend or a whole tournament. But we also look at that with the Gering (ball field) complex that’s being built, the Lander’s Soccer Complex, the tumbling and gymnastics at the Carpenter Center,” s
