Headed out for a hunt? Before you take aim, please look beyond your target to be sure there are no power lines, poles or other electrical equipment that could be impacted by a stray shot.
Dixie EC wishes you a safe hunting season!
Save time (and electricity) by using your dishwasher instead of washing dishes with hot water by hand! Wash smarter, not harder:
✨ Pre-rinse dishes.
✨ Use your machine’s recommended detergent.
✨ Set dishwasher temperature lower.
✨ Opt for air-dry instead of heated-dry.
Happy Election Day! Time to exercise your rights and celebrate a fundamental principle all cooperatives hold and believe in – democracy. Let’s put it into action. Find your polling place here: vote.org/polling-place-locat…
The brief flow of power when you switch on a light is very small compared to the energy used if you leave it on. It’s always best to turn off lights when you leave a room.
We are currently experiencing an outage impacting members in the Sprague area. Crews are working to safely restore power as quickly as possible.
Score a touchdown for energy savings while you’re out enjoying Friday night lights! Before you leave for the game, adjust your thermostat and turn off the lights. 🏈

Kids are twice as likely to be hit and killed by automobiles on Halloween than on any other night of the year. Trick or treat in well-lit areas, encourage your kids to wear LED safety lights, and consider adding reflective safety tabs to their costumes.
Thank you, Pike Road High School, for having us at your First Responders Celebration! We enjoyed talking with students about electrical safety and the exciting career opportunities available in the cooperative industry. #EmpoweringFutureGenerations
