To celebrate Cooperative Month in October, Prairie Land held a poster contest for third graders across its 18-county service territory. Students used their creativity to draw posters of electrical safety at home or school. 

The top three poster winners were awarded a brand new bike and helmet. As an incentive for schools and teachers to allow their students to enter, participating classroom teachers received a donation from Prairie Land to use for classroom supplies. Classes with winning posters received an additional check. 

Prairie Land received 405 posters from 31 participating classrooms. Thank you for supporting your electric cooperative and promoting electrical safety. Congratulations to the winners!

1st Place – Koen Miller, Eisenhower Elementary, Norton; Mrs. Pam David, teacher, $200 donation.
2nd Place – Felicity Hodgson, East Elementary, Belleville; Mrs. Ritterling, teacher, $150 donation.
3rd Place – Makinley Riener, Stockton Elementary; Ms. Werner, teacher, $100 donation.
