Last night we had our Broken Bow Ambulance Service Christmas party, and it was a great reminder of what makes this service special. It was a chance to slow down, come together with our families, share an amazing meal, and enjoy some well-earned laughs with the people we serve alongside every day.
We were also proud to recognize several members with our annual awards:
🌧️ Black Cloud Award
Presented to Becka Neumiller – for the member who somehow always manages to ensure there’s at least one call when she’s on shift.
👶 Rookie of the Year Award
Presented to Bobby Harrold – for a new member who has taken initiative from day one, gone above and beyond expectations, stepped up whenever needed, and shown a strong commitment to learning, teamwork, and serving our community.
🌅 Horizon Award
Presented to Mike Jilg – recognizing forward-thinking leadership, dedication to growth, and the willingness to help guide our service toward what’s next while keeping our core values front and center.
🏅EMS Provider of the Year Award
Presented to Chief David Baltz – for everything he does for this service as both Chief and a Paramedic. From taking transports, being available when we need coverage, making sacrifices behind the scenes, and constantly pushing us to be better and do more for our patients and community, his commitment does not go unnoticed.
Thank you to everyone who makes Broken Bow Ambulance Service what it is. We are incredibly grateful for our team, our families who support us, and the opportunity to serve this community together.
