We might not have gotten to do the Live Line Demonstration yesterday, but we were glad to still be able to stop by with some of our linemen and trucks to share with the area FFA students at the Wayne City FFA Field Day.

Thank you to the WCHS FFA Alumni for inviting us and hopefully next year it won't be so HOT so we can give our demonstration for you all!

The end of summer and beginning of school has been full of Live Line Demonstrations!

Keeping our members safe, from the oldest to the youngest, is of utmost importance to us.

If you had a student at one of our live lines, ask them what they learned! It could save a life.
