Today, on Lineman Appreciation Day, we honor those who show up when it matters most, often in the toughest conditions, to keep our communities connected. As our CEO Scott Hendrix says, “Electric cooperatives were built on the idea of neighbors serving neighbors,” and that purpose is carried out every day by the linemen who restore power, bring light back to homes, and stand in the gap when communities need it most.
This work is more than a career, it is a calling grounded in service, resilience, and pride. “Our linemen represent the heart of what we do,” Hendrix shares, “they are the reason our communities can depend on us.” Behind every restored line is a story of sacrifice that often goes unseen, but never unappreciated. Today, we say thank you to the ones who keep the power on and the cooperative spirit alive.
Happy Lineman Appreciation Day from your family at Tombigbee Electric Power Association.
