1st place winner Ryder Hernandez, 4th grader at Yarbro Elementary School, Lovington, NM.
Each year, Lea County Electric invites all 2nd, 3rd and 4th-grade classes in our service area to participate in the Safety Coloring Contest. Students color safety posters provided by the Cooperative and create their own individualized safety message on the poster. Posters are judged for creativity, neatness and the overall safety message. The contest assists teachers as they talk to their students about electrical safety.
Prizes for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd Place winners at each school and for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Place overall are awarded for each school at their end-of-year awards assemblies.
For more information regarding the annual contest, call and speak to our Marketing and Member Services department at 575-396-3631.
