From the Manager - We're Ready for Storm Season. Are You?
Now that summer's in full swing, like many of you, I welcome more opportunities to be outdoors and enjoy the warmer weather. Summertime brings many of my favorite activities like cooking out with family and friends, afternoons on the water and simply slowing down a bit to enjoy life. Summer months also make conditions right for dangerous storms.
No Game Worth Getting Struck by Lightening
Perhaps you've been a parent, coach or player at an outdoor sporting event in a similar predicament: the clouds roll in and the sky gets dark, but you HAVE to finish the game. After all, it will only take a few more minutes. Or, not wanting to appear overly cautious or paranoid, you wait for others to give the signal. This is one situation when finishing the game is not worth the risk. Find out what precautions to take.
Best Wishes on Your Retirement, Larry!
Larry Kraft, journeyman lineman, is retiring on June 2nd after spending 42 years on the lines. Fourteen of those years were spent with Lane-Scott Electric and the previous 28 with Aquilla. Larry and his wife, Donna, are planning to hook-up their camper and take-off, traveling and enjoying their retirement, spending extra time with grandkids and, of course, throwing some golf in the mix! Happy Retirement Larry!

Lane-Scott challenged several local area elementary schools to help stock our food banks before summer. The kids had a good time with some friendly competition and we were able to collect a lot of food for a great cause! Take a look at how well we did.
