A new event is coming to the area this spring - the Antelope County Ag & Home Expo on March 2 and 3 at the Antelope County Fairgrounds.
Committee members Craig & Melissa Smith, Greg Ptacek and Wade Pitzer have be planning the event for some time and made the formal announcement this morning with details. There will be no admission to the two-day event that will feature local businesses and lots of door prizes. "I'm incredibly excited," Ptacek said. "I think it will be a great event to try and bring in businesses throughout Antelope County." The event is sponsored by the Antelope County News and US92 and is being organized by the committee members and the Neligh Chamber of Commerce. Smith said the event is aimed at drawing both people and businesses from across the area to promote the ag and home sector of Antelope County. "I think we need to draw in all the businesses from Antelope County and even surrounding counties," Smith said. He added that the committee has put together a four-wheeler giveaway. Smith said Big Red Motorsports will be providing a 2016 Arctic Cat ATV with a limited number of tickets available for purchase. He said only 200 tickets will be sold between January 1 and the event with the winner drawn on March 3 at the Expo. Tickets will be $80 each or $150 for two tickets. Smith said he's excited about the event, which will serve as a great networking opportunity for Antelope County businesses and the public. "Hopefully there will be a great turnout so we can show what Antelope County has to offer," Smith said.
