The Buzz is a monthly message from Boone Electric Cooperative to our community celebrating what it means to be a member-owner of your local electric cooperative.
Boone Electric Cooperative: Your Co-op, Our Community.
Boone Electric Cooperative members know all rounding up their bill to help the community through the co-op's Community Trust. BEC's Manager of Member Services and Communications Laura Baker and long-time trustee Kim Stichnote explain how a new program — Plus One — is helping the Trust do more local good. We also discuss the role trustees and committee readers play in reviewing grant funding applications and awarding the annual Bob Alderson scholarships.

Teresa joins the show to discuss the balancing act between reliability and affordability, and how local accountability makes the co-op business model work.
