County
Fairs and
Home Shows
Pioneer participates each year in the county fairs and home
shows in our major service area. The Pioneer booths at these
events provide educational materials and demonstrations
about energy conservation, electric safety and many other
energy related topics. We also sponsor contests and purchase
livestock at each fair.
Farm
Science Review
Because Pioneer, like most other electric cooperatives,
started in the 1930s when farmers needed access to electricity,
we find it important to stay in touch with our roots by
sponsoring and participating in Ohio's Farm Science Review
each September. At this event, individuals and companies
involved in the farming industry can learn about the latest
technologies available to improve production and efficiency
in the industry.
Speakers
Bureau
Pioneer believes education is key to making a difference
in our community. That's why we are always available at
events or meetings to present information about cooperative
history and philosophy, deregulation and the electric industry,
energy efficiency and conservation, electrical safety and
geothermal heating and cooling. If you would like us to
speak to your group at an upcoming meeting or event, please
contact us.
Other
Commitments
Pioneer makes a continuous effort to stay in touch with
the communities we serve by participating in groups such
as local Chambers of Commerce, Arts Councils and the Economic
Development Council. In addition, we often sponsor youth
sports teams during summer months.
