Amiee York, Community Affairs Manager, Arkansas

In September, our employee ambassadors in Arkansas sponsored the #supportthemask photo contest. All employees were invited to submit photos of themselves and their families wearing masks. Winners were selected by a team of ambassadors and two guest judges. Collectively, they determined overall winners for the following categories: Funniest Mask, Most Creative Mask, Who Wore it Best, and Best Group/Family. 

The winners are:

Funniest:  Wenona Kleser

Most Creative: Greg Baker

Who Wore it Best: Erin Goodwin

Best Group/Family: Andrew Garner and Family
 

Congratulations to our winners, who will each be awarded Energ!ze points. Thank you to everyone that sent in photos, and to our guest judges, Franki Coulter and Todd Jacobs! All entries can be viewed here.  And remember, #supportthemask!

We partner with our communities and customers, providing the kind of energy that fuels those areas and the lives of those we serve. Feel free to share the stories and photos. Make sure to tag us on FacebookInstagram, LinkedIn and Twitter.
