Demo Derby - 2011 will kick off what we hope to be a recurring event during Old Mill Days.  A $5,000 purse, DDOT Officials, open pits, mad dog awards, live band and beer garden.  Should be a great event Saturday July 2nd to kick off all of the fun that is NYMC's Old Mill Days.

  Easter Egg Hunt - In 2011 the NYMC held its annual Easter Egg Hunt. The weather was good for nearly two hundred youngsters and their light-footed parents to hunt out the surprise filled eggs donated by the NYMC and many local businesses.  Special thanks to all who attended and a special thanks to Neligh's Chamber of Commerce for donating the prizes this year. The Easter Bunny said he was "Hoppy" with the event and "hops" to see everyone next year.    More Pictures

   

Mini-Moto Races - In 2004 and 2005 Neligh hosted its first Mini-Moto Races.  Over 20 adult riders from across Nebraska and South Dakota entertained more than 400 spectators with races on motorcycles intended for a kindergartner.          Pictures Mini-Motos
   

Pancake Breakfasts - If you've attended any of Neligh's events you probably know we (a) never go hungry and (b) believe there is nothing like a good healthy meal before the festivities. This year the Neligh Young Men's Club will be hosting its annual pancake breakfast. Please come and eat free pancakes on July 3rd in the Pavilion. This breakfast will begin at 8:00 AM, is open to the public and will be the starting location for the American Legions Riders Poker-run.  Whatever your plans this summer, it's worth rolling out of bed, getting a belly full and watching "Mo" flip pancakes like a feen.  See you in the Park!    Pictures of 2009 Pancake Breakfast
   

Haunted House/Trail - This event has been one of the NYMC's longest and most successful. Although a tremendous amount of work and usually bone chilling temps, NYMC's Haunted House is always a huge amount of fun for the members as well as those worthy of a trip through the door.  Unfortunately because of more stringent fire safety issues the club did not have a house in 2010.  Be ready to muster up some confidence for a scare in October, we are planning a haunted trail at Penn Lake Park.        Video of Haunted House         
   

Pig Catching Contest - On a hot summer this is your chance to bring out the kid in you again. Participate or watch as mudslingers battle the oinkers  in front of Neligh's grandstand for 2009's pig wrestling bragging rights. This event is held in conjunction with Old Mill Days and the 4th of July Celebration in Neligh. We want to thank Bruce Hild for his four legged contribution to the fun. In order to switch things up a bit we are going to try a Wild Chicken Chase in 2011.  Hope to see you there!
   

4th of July Parade - The Old Mill Days celebration in Neligh is truly one of those diamond in the rough mayberry small town celebrations. Click below for a full list of the 4th of July activities as well as more information on how you can contribute to anything from fireworks to turtle races. Most of all, help us carry on this wonderful event that helps make Neligh such a wonderful place to live.  When the fireworks finish flashing and the fine foods finally settle you will know you just experienced the perfect summer day in Neligh.  See you this summer.                 Old Mill Days Poster              
   
Airshow - In 2007 the Neligh Young Men's Club celebrated its 50th anniversary. In honor of 35 years of service to the community of Neligh, the club decided to go "all out" with its first airshow at the Antelope County Airport. Coupled with generous donations from Blackburn Manufacturing and Schindler Flying nearly 2000 people ate pancakes, got their first airplane ride and were treated to aerobatic routines by Doug Roth and Rob Ator. The club has plans to do another Neligh Airshow in 2012. Don't Miss It!                       Pictures from the NYMC Airshow.
   

ATV Mud Drags & Enduro-cross - 2009 marked the second year for this unique riding venue.  Once again the Neligh Young Men's Club teamed up with Craig & Melissa Smith of Big Red Motorsports for an wildly successful event.  This is one of the most enjoyable events for the spectators and we hope to see you next year either in the stands or muddy like the rest of us.                           Click here for pictures of the 2009 event.
 

 

Fireworks - One of the biggest events of Old Mill Days is continuing the 37 year tradition of the NYMC fireworks show.  Always on the 4th of July, you'll want to stick around after the activities to witness this brilliant aerial display.  We would like to extend a special thanks to all of those who made donations in 2010.  Hope to see you relaxing with a full belly and quenched thirst at the Antelope County Airport in 2011.   Pictures of 2009 show.
 

Stop Light Drags - 2011 will be the third year in a row that the Neligh Young Men's Club partnered with the Norfolk Car Club for stop light drags on the runway.  This event draws more than 1000 spectators and nearly 150 cars.  Make plans to attend this year and don't miss the smoke, noise and good "old fashioned" motor head fun.  Thanks to all who made it possible!                                   Pictures of the 2009 Stop Light Drags      Videos of the event.
