We’re proud to sponsor the newly formed Casper Youth Council (CYC).
The CYC works to spark interest in city and county government and provide local youth a voice in the shaping of our community by creating an accessible channel for open communication between the Casper City Council, youth, and the citizens.
Just like the Casper City Council, the CYC has a mayor and other officials who consider policy and discuss issues. Our own Black Hills Energy Community Affairs manager Michael Howe volunteered to serve as an advisor to the CYC. His job will be to help the group learn parliamentary procedure and how the policy making process works at local levels of government.
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 Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and Twitter.
