ENERGY HOG VISITS CLASSROOMS
During Earth week this past April, Crow Wing Power visited elementary schools in Crosslake, Emily, Baxter and Pequot Lakes teaching kids to be energy hog busters. The children were very excited and interested in going home to stop any waste of energy they might find. For more information on how to become an energy hog buster and to play online energy conservation games go to www.energyhog.org.
ELECTRIFYING BABE
As a community leader, Crow Wing Power has chosen to support this summer's Oxtrot promotion. Our particular Ox was designed and painted by the Pequot Lakes school art instructor. He's called "E lectrifying Babe". The project is geared to benefit the arts, the community and area tourism. Our Ox was painted by Molly Wiste, Pequot Lakes art instructor. the program is a lakes area take on public art similar to the Peanuts character statues in St. Paul. There are 20 to 30 Ox located at various sponsors in our area.
The Oxtrot is sponsored by the Crossing Arts Alliance in partnership with the Brainerd Lakes Chamber and Avalon Studios. Oxtrot locations are featured on the chamber's 2008 Brainerd lakes area map which you can get in our office. People visiting all Oxtrot locations will be able to register for a lakes area getaway.
