Our employees volunteer thousands of hours in the communities we serve, and we as a company love adding to those contributions whenever possible.
This summer, we sponsored the Gering 13U team as they competed in the 2021 Midwest Plains Babe Ruth Regional Tournament, in Bemidji, Minnesota. Operations team members Jeff, and Jordan both volunteer their time and talents to the team. Both men have sons who play on the team.
The tournament consisted of 12 teams from seven different states, and the Gering team did very well, making it to the semifinals.
We are proud of the Gering 13U team and glad we could support them.
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.
