✨Member Spotlight: Summit Utilities ✨

While many people know Summit Utilities as the company that keeps the gas flowing, what truly stands out about the Altus team is their heart for this community.

These local employees go far beyond their day-to-day work by giving back through volunteer efforts and community support all across Southwest Oklahoma. From helping with Operation CARE, supporting Southwest Oklahoma Community Action Group, Special Olympics, and Pathways Pregnancy Services, to reading in local schools and donating backpacks and school supplies. This crew is committed to making a difference right here at home.

Their investment in our community doesn’t stop when the workday ends, and we are grateful for the many ways they serve Altus and the surrounding area. And hey — if you enjoyed a hot shower this morning, a warm meal, or a cozy home during winter… you might owe the Summit Utilities crew a little appreciation too! 💙

Today’s Legislative Luncheon was informative and bittersweet. We got to hear updates for the last time from Senator, Brent Howard before his term ends this fall. He and Representative, Gerrid Kendrix updated us on several hot topics in discussion at the state level, and opened the floor up for questions and discussion.

We are so very appreciative of their efforts to keep the people of southwest Oklahoma forefront when making decisions, and are grateful to have them as a voice for us as legislation is passed.

Thank you Gerrid and Brent for all you both do and have done! Senator Howard, you will be missed!❤️
