Last week, we attended the Excavation Safety Day event in Plano, hosted by the Damage Prevention Council of Texas and Texas811. Digging safely isn’t just about following regulations—it’s about protecting lives, property and the environment. It was inspiring to see so many industry professionals and the public come together to share knowledge and reaffirm our commitment to safety.

Being involved in our local communities is so important! Not only do events like this forge relationships between Employees and community members, but it allows us to spread the word about CoServ! We hosted the Lake Cities Chamber of Commerce Networking Coffee this week at CoServ Headquarters. The event featured a presentation about our blood drive in September.

There is no doubt our local teachers are making a difference in the community! Our Energizing Educators Program is a testament to that belief. This program allows a local educator to be recognized for going above and beyond and making a difference in the lives of their students.

On Tuesday, we had a day dedicated to Employee well-being! The annual Employee Health Fair was hosted on-site and featured screenings, giveaways and health-related vendors. This event is part of our commitment to supporting the health, wellness and happiness of our amazing Employees!

We celebrate Ice Cream Day with a scoop of joy and a sprinkle of team spirit. SerenDIPity stopped by CoServ Headquarters this week so Employees could enjoy a sweet treat to beat the summer heat. This is always the perfect time for our Employees to catch up or meet new faces in the building! #Teamwork #EmployeeAppreciation #IceCreamDay #CompanyCulture

On Saturday, our President and CEO, Donnie Clary, was part of a two-man panel that spoke at the 2024 Energy Efficiency Summit and Fair hosted by Congressman Michael C. Burgess. Donnie spoke on energy, reliability and storm response, alongside John Dreyfuss, Vistra Energy's VP of Nuclear Support. The event was open to the public and sheds a light on the importance of timely and practical information when it comes to energy and electricity. We want to be a part of that conversation when it comes to educating the public and investing in our communities. Our Energy Education Team was also in attendance at the event with a booth demonstrating the importance of electric safety. #EnergyEfficiency #LocalGovernment #ElectricCoOp #StormResponse #Reliability #Community

From graphic design and accounting to engineering and gas construction, CoServ has a wide variety of career paths available. And every year we like to highlight those paths by hosting our annual Bring Your Child to Work Day, where we get to inspire the next generation. This year, 13 of our Employees brought their children to work for a full day of hands-on activities, during which the children learned not only what their parents do but also how all the departments work together to accomplish CoServ’s Mission. If you want to be a part of that Mission, CoServ is always hiring. Click here to learn more about career opportunities: Coserv.com/Careers/

This past weekend, 21 (including four judges) of our linemen competed in the Texas Lineman Rodeo in Seguin, TX. One of our journeyman lineman teams placed 𝟰𝘁𝗵 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼-𝗼𝗽 𝗱𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻 and 𝟱𝘁𝗵 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗷𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝘆𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗱𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘀𝗶𝗼𝗻. We applaud them for their hard work and determination to bring it home this week! We are so grateful to be represented by such talented and skillful linemen. This competition allows linemen to put their skills on display and learn from their peers. It also highlights safe working practices and gives them extra hands-on training to grow their knowledge. They are also able to connect with their peers and share best practices while networking with other utilities.

Our first Ice Cream Day of 2024 was a sweet success with The Dolly Llama! We believe that it’s the small moments like these that make a big difference in fostering a positive work environment and is a testament to our commitment to not only achieving excellence in our work but also ensuring the well-being and happiness of our people. #TeamBuilding #CompanyCulture #EmployeeEngagement #IceCreamDay #WorkplaceWellness

Exciting growth is underway in Pilot Point. From having a single-phase line decades ago to installing new high-capacity infrastructure capable of supporting thousands of new homes and businesses, this is just one example of the growth throughout our service area, as we add an average of 1,200 electric meters monthly to our system. Since 1937, we've been powering communities in North Texas, and none of it would be possible without our committed Employees and their dedication to excellence.
