Help your teen stay safe behind the wheel — and around electricity. If they’re in an accident involving a power pole: ✅ Stay in the vehicle and call 911. ✅ Warn others to stay at least 50 feet away. ✅ Remember — power lines don’t have to spark or move to be dangerous. Always assume they’re energized.
Lake Region Electric Cooperative was excited to welcome nearly 150 students, parents, and teachers from Wagoner Public Schools’ enrichment group for a morning packed with learning and hands-on fun! Students in grades 3–5 had the opportunity to explore both the conveniences and safety considerations of electricity.
