NCSC Staff Enjoy RTIME, Honor Former Colleague

NCSC was pleased to be a chairman-level sponsor of NTCA’s RTIME 2025, which took place February 23–26 in San Antonio, Texas.

In addition to sponsoring the overall conference, NCSC was once again a sponsor of the Foundation for Rural Service’s (FRS) biggest fundraiser of the year, the Rural Rodeo Celebration. This year, the event was held at Tejas Rodeo, where attendees experienced a true taste of Texas with BBQ, roping lessons, cornhole, line dancing and a private rodeo show.

A large portion of the NCSC team attended RTIME, enjoying the conference, San Antonio and the Rural Rodeo Celebration.

The team was also able to catch up with former NCSC Vice President of Business Development Nancy White, a long-time industry leader who retired from NCSC last year. At the conference, she received the 2025 Distinguished Service Award from FRS for her tremendous work championing the organization. The award is presented to an individual who has made a significant impact and meaningful contribution to FRS through their volunteer or fundraising efforts.

In addition, NCSC Vice President of Economic Research John Suter took to the main stage of the Closing General Session for an economic update and to introduce NCSC-sponsored speaker Ben Seidman, a master of deception who wowed the crowd with his pickpocketing skills.
