@CraigheadCoop Thank you to all who are working tirelessly to keep families across NEA safe and warm.

@CraigheadCoop Really proud of the work you guys are doing with the new solar array and the new high speed internet access. Y'all are the best!

If you are on Craighead Electric and your bill was higher than normal like our $650 one, I highly recommend you request an energy audit. The guys from CE were very prompt, professional, thorough, and informative. They helped us identify a major problem and a few minor ones, offered solutions and left us hopeful that our next one won't be quiet so high after the necessary changes are made.

Thank you all for doing the great jobs keeping us in the light. You work very hard at a very dangerous job and I for one appreciate it very much. God bless and stay safe 🙏❤
