EREC Celebrates 86 Years
Co-op staff and members prepare for the 2025 hurricane season.
On behalf of everyone at Escambia River Electric Cooperative (EREC), I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to Wallace Lake K-8 School for graciously allowing us to use their facilities for this year’s annual meeting.
We had a wonderful turnout and truly enjoyed the performance by the school’s talented band and choir. Seeing the next generation shine is 1 of the many reasons we love serving this community.
This year marked 86 years of dedicated service, 86 years of neighbors helping neighbors, and 86 years of bringing reliable electricity to rural homes and families. Your continued support is what makes our cooperative strong.
On a side note, June marks the beginning of hurricane season. While we work hard to restore power as quickly and safely as possible during outages, it’s important to have a personal plan in place. Storms can be unpredictable, and power interruptions are often unavoidable in extreme weather. Take time now to prepare your household in case of an emergency.
As we look ahead, we remain committed to growing and improving alongside our members. If you have suggestions on how we can better serve you, don’t hesitate to reach out. We are always listening and always striving to do better for you and because of you.
