This year, Ouachita Electric had a blast celebrating Cooperative Month!
We filled October with activities that reminded us what being part of a cooperative is all about—teamwork, community, and having a little fun along the way.
Inside the co-op, our linemen refreshed their skills with pole-top rescue training and were treated to goodie bags as a small token of appreciation for their hard work. Employees also enjoyed a visit from a local coffee truck (because who doesn’t love a mid-morning caffeine boost?) and gathered for our first-ever “Dip Day,” where everyone brought their favorite dip to share—it was a huge hit!
Out in the community, our crews kicked off the month by greeting students and families at Harmony Grove Elementary during morning drop-off, helping brighten the start of their school day. We also showed our support for Breast Cancer Awareness Month by proudly wearing pink, and we wrapped up the month by joining in several local Halloween events. Seeing all the smiles and laughter reminded us how special it is to serve our community.
We’re already looking forward to next year’s celebration and finding even more ways to give back, connect, and have fun together!
