Is it just me, or do you, too, incredulously wonder if time is flying by quicker than usual?

Those memorable events, though,… Continue reading.

As summer winds down and fall rolls in, I find myself reflecting on how good it is to be part of a community like this.

Community is made of that special blend of family and neighbors, sports and churches, fond memories and bright futures.

What do you call a Saturday afternoon with thousands of dollars in prize drawings, live music from the band Caribou, ice cream treats, inflatables, a live animal show from Silly Safaris and free gifts for every family?

Investing in our future

Posted on Feb 19, 2023 in Clark County REMC

If you turn on the news or scroll through social media, it won’t take long to find a headline that gives you pause. The top stories of the last year were about soaring inflation, COVID-19 variants, international war, climate change and political gridlock.

Typically, the monthly CEO article is a place to talk about new programs or issues that matter to co-op members.  But for November, I want to pause and focus on something that matters more to me than any headline or company announcement. I want to say thank you.  Why am I thankful? There aren’t enough… Continue reading.

Energy is a limited resource. It must be produced just like any other product. So when your A/C kicks on, a power plant has to make your electricity and deliver it to you, almost instantaneously.  This summer, there is a chance that there may not be enough electricity to go around.  The trend for the… Continue reading.
