The results are in!
EWEB received 275 stellar submissions from local 5th graders for our Annual Public Power Week Poster Contest. EWEB staff narrowed the posters down to the top 20. Customers, social media followers, and those who attended EWEB's Truck-or-Treat Event cast over 3,000 votes to select the top five to receive awards.
Public Power Week is an annual celebration of customer-owned, community-powered utilities like EWEB. Because of our ownership structure, all decisions at EWEB are made with the community in mind.
This year’s poster contest theme was “Powered by EWEB.” The winning submissions celebrated public power week and illustrated how electricity powers the devices we use in everyday life and the complex network of infrastructure that makes it all possible!
Congratulations to all our award winners and participants.
