KFTC member Steve Wilkins running for Blue Grass Energy Cooperative Board of Directors

We have an exciting announcement to make in our work to encourage sustainable and affordable energy choices for Kentuckians. Berea KFTC member Steve Wilkins is running for his Rural Electric Co-op's Board of Directors -- Blue Grass Energy Cooperative.

Steve’s belief in affordable and sustainable energy, good local jobs, and transparent co-op governance is right in-line with KFTC’s positions and work. Read more about his positions by downloading his flyer here.

In order for Steve to get nominated for the ballot, he must gather more than 300 petition signatures from Blue Grass Energy Cooperative customers. Any Blue Grass member can sign (but only one person can sign per-household) the petition.

Will you help us promote clean energy and democracy by helping to get Steve on the ballot so that Blue Grass Energy customers will have a choice this year when it comes to selecting their board members?

Here is how you can help:

1.) Sign and circulate the petition:   Are you a Blue Grass Energy customer? Do you know friends, family, or coworkers who are? Please download and print off the petition here. Blue Grass energy serves households in Jessamine, Madison, Mercer, Anderson, Woodford, Franklin, Harrison, Nicholas, Bourbon, Bracken, Pendleton, Henry, Spencer, and Shelby County.  Please sign the petition and get other Blue Grass customers to sign it as well. With your help, we can show broad support for Steve's nomination! You can return the petition with any signatures to KFTC, 435-R Chestnut St., Suite 2, Berea, KY, 40403.  All petition signatures are due by April 13th (please get them in to KFTC early).  Any support you can give would be appreciated!
