Jack Ostergard, Cowboy Poet - Cowboy Humorist
|
For a brand of entertainment you can count on, let me introduce
you to the guy who fits the ticket! Jack Ostergard. Jack can be
described as a retired rancher with a gift of gab and a penchant
for rhyming words-he has a cowboy's lanky build, and you'll usually
find him wearing Wrangler jeans, boots and a Western-out shirt and
a Stetson hat!
Jack is a fourth generation rancher born and raised on the edge
of the sandhills in Custer County. He is an ex-amateur rodeo competitor,
a Korean War veteran, and for many years served on Nebraska .Cattle
Ass'n. boards. Jack was second place OYFR (Outstanding Young Farmer
Rancher) in Nebraska and in 1986 was the first recipient of the
Nebraska Cattleman of the Year award. His original cowboy poetry
ranges from Protest to Humor, with a dose of Politics thrown in
for good measure!! It's good, clean family entertainment that's
sure to please!
Jack has presented his poetry and humor all across Nebraska and
in several neighboring states as well, and would welcome the opportunity
to address your group. Most western states hold their own "gatherings"
on a yearly basis. He has been featured poet in both Nebraska and
Kansas cowboy poet gatherings.
