⚡💚 What an amazing 2024 Energy Camp!
Electricity is a powerful force and should be respected. More often than we would care to admit, we don’t pay enough attention to it, unless we’re impacted by it. Keeping you safe is one of Oklahoma’s electric cooperatives top priorities.
We want YOU to be Wired Up for Safety! ⚡️
😍❤️ Enjoy this short recap from our time volunteering at Special Olympics Oklahoma last week! We always have the best and most fulfilling time there.
⚡⚠️ A dangerous situation took place in Colorado with a school bus filled with kids. They were headed to an FFA competition when the bus snagged a power line just as it was falling to the ground under the weight of snow. Could it have happened in Oklahoma? Absolutely. Fortunately, the bus driver Clint, dispatch and first responders knew the right steps to take to keep everyone safe.

In Oklahoma, where the wind comes sweeping down the plains, we know facing storms and natural disasters is part of our lives. Do you know what to do if a storm brings down an overhead power line or if a car crash causes a padmount transformer to become dislodged? Severe storms can create potential electrical dangers, and electricity is something you cannot see, hear, taste or smell. It has been called the “silent killer.”
⚡️ We want you to be well informed and be Wired Up for Safety! ⚡️

My co-op powers my life, my co-op empowers my community.

#PoweringEmpowering #CoopMonth
“Cooperation: the process of working together for the same end.” Electric co-ops are built on cooperation. Member-elected boards and the consumer-members face challenges as a team. It’s the perfect demonstration of community power. #PoweringEmpowering
In honor of National Cooperative Month, we reflect on the tremendous impact rural electrification brought to our communities. Take a moment to hear the memories of longtime Choctaw Electric Cooperative member, Leeoma Caldwell. We treasure her loving memory.
#CoopMonth #PoweringEmpowering
Powering + Empowering
