2023 Electrical Safety Contest Winners

Written by MEC | Jun 26, 2023 4:00:00 AM

Our free hotline demonstrations teach local fourth graders about the dangers of electricity. As part of the demonstrations, we ask each student to create a poster that illustrates something they learned.

Two overall winners are selected—one from southwest Michigan, and one from southeast Michigan—and their messages get shared on billboards with the greater community. The winners also get a pizza party for their classroom, and their teachers receive an Amazon gift card to be used for classroom supplies.

We offer free electrical and propane safety demonstrations for any group or organization at any time throughout the year. Programs are adaptable for various audiences and timelines, and they can be conducted at our facility or yours. For more information, please contact the community relations team at 800-492-5989 or pr@teammidwest.com.
