Thank a Lineworker
People powering life
Honoring those who work on the front lines
It takes a dedicated team to keep the lights on around the clock. It takes reliable individuals to sacrifice their time on holidays and in the middle of the night to keep electricity flowing for our customers. It takes heroes to power our communities in harsh weather conditions to keep people safe. On this Lineworker’s Appreciation Day, and every day, we say thank you!
