As part of our 85th-anniversary celebrations, we're thrilled to unveil a special video ?? that takes you on a charming journey through LPEA's history. This production isn't just another corporate video – it's designed to be disruptive, reminding you that we're more than just an ? electric bill. The video depicts our eras of progress through period-appropriate ?? vehicles, which serve as a thread connecting our past ?? to our present ?? . It's amazing to think that we once used draft horses to pull up poles! What truly brings this story to life are the community members who appear in the video, embodying the spirit of our cooperative. Every scene is filmed ?? right here in LPEA's ?? service territory, using props sourced from the coop itself! This creative approach celebrates our rich history while highlighting the timeless spirit of community ???????? that has powered our region for nearly a century. It's a testament to how far we've come and a reminder of the strong bonds that continue to drive us forward. Read more at lpea.coop/85years

We are so proud of Ethan!
CREA connected with Youth Leadership Council participant Ethan McGuinness from La Plata Electric Association at NRECA's Annual Meeting to hear about his experience at this year's #PowerXchange. "It's such an incredible experience getting to connect with different kids and professionals from all over the country and all over the world. I have met some wonderful people from Texas, Oregon, New York, and Maine... It's been a great educational opportunity to learn how rural electric co-ops are powering our world," shared McGuinness. It was the 2023 Washington D.C. Youth Tour that inspired Ethan to pursue a career in politics, public service, and history. "The Youth Tour trip changed my life. I now have a goal to attend Colorado State University to study political science," said McGuinness.?
