One of the many ways Prince George Electric Cooperative gives back to the community is through its employee volunteer program. Annually, PGEC partners with the Adopt-A-Highway Program to collect trash along George Town, Spring Hill, Shingleton, Beaver Dam and parts of Walnut Hill Road.
This year more than 60 employees cleared a total of 1,280 pounds of trash and
debris along the 12-mile stretch surrounding the co-op’s headquarter office.
“This tradition reminds each of our employees of our larger mission of the co-op is to help make our corner of the world a better place,” said Sarat Yellepeddi, the co-op’s president and CEO.
