Sponsored by the Touchstone Energy Cooperatives of Iowa, the statewide Shine the Light contest celebrates our cooperative commitment to community.

During the month of June, member-owners and employees of Iowa’s electric cooperatives were invited to nominate local volunteers who are making a positive difference in their communities at IowaShinetheLight.com.

The judging committee had the difficult task of narrowing down from 68 outstanding nominees to select three contest winners.

Congratulations to Deb Johnson who is recognized for her work with Greater Fairfield Area Habitat for Humanity; Nicole Low who is recognized for her work with the Eldora Community Garden; and Sharon Van Beek who is recognized for her work with Buckets of Joy. These three winners have been awarded a $2,000 donation to their charity or community organization of choice.

While no entries within Calhoun County Electric Cooperative service territory were selected as one of the three statewide winners, we would like to showcase the volunteers who were nominated for serving their community. We are happy to provide a donation of $1,500 to Lohrville Visions. We were able to make this donation by partnering with CoBank and Basin Electric Power Cooperative.

Congratulations to Calhoun County Electric Cooperative’s Nominees
