Speaking of safety, our Rodeo Team has been hard at work practicing their skills for the event this month. Although friendly competition is fun, being a part of the Rodeo Team is one of the best forms of safety training for our lineworkers here at the co-op. We are proud to have yet another way to incorporate safety in our daily work so that we all go home safe, every day.

The 2019 Rodeo Team will be judging the artwork to award prizes of $100, $50 and $25 for the three best entries. The winners will be invited to come to the co-op for a picture with the lineworkers and a close look at one of our bucket trucks.

All entries should be turned in by Friday, March 6, 2020.

Meet your Coloring Contest judges! This month, YEC will send a group of 18 linemen to Florence to compete against other South Carolina cooperatives on safety skills and electrical knowledge. Part of the 2019 Rodeo Team is pictured preparing for the competition. The rigorous skill training our linemen complete for the event provides on-the-job safety readiness so that each employee goes home, without harm, to their families every day. Just another way we locals are looking out for you and our community. The team looks forward to seeing the artistic talents of our young members! All entries are due by Friday, April 5, 2019.
