Unfortunately, cases of people trying to find creative ways to stay warm during the winter, such as leaving a gas oven open or bringing a grill inside, often lead to death or serious injury.

The majority of the donors who participated were CoServ Employees with others coming from our partner, the Lake Cities Chamber of Commerce. Overall, there were 21 first-time donors.

Cybersecurity plays a critical role in all businesses today but that responsibility is even greater for critical infrastructure like an electric or natural gas utility. CoServ doesn’t just guard personal information for our Electric Members and Gas Customers, we safeguard the electric grid and natural gas system from cybercriminals.

CoServ's linemen crews are coming home from Louisiana Tuesday evening after spending several days restoring power in the aftermath of Hurricane Ida. 

The Washington-St. Tammany Electric Cooperative in Louisiana has specifically asked that CoServ linemen assist with the power restoration work that remains to be done in their service area in the aftermath of Hurricane Ida. 

To continue supporting our co-op family, CoServ is sending another convoy of linemen, bucket trucks and other equipment to Louisiana to provide additional relief and assistance to WSTEC. They will depart Friday from CoServ headquarters.

CoServ linemen want to respond to power outages as quickly and safely as possible – so having a breakdown is unacceptable. But more than that, when a bucket is hanging 50 feet in the air next to a power line, the lineman is putting his life in the hands of that truck – and the Fleet Services Department that maintains it.

There’s no better time to remind the public about the importance of calling 811 than on National Safe Digging Day on August 11, or 8-11. The call is free and so are the various utilities who will come out to mark electric, communication, natural gas/petroleum, irrigation, potable water and sewer and drain lines on your property so you or a contractor can dig safely.

The blood drive will be in the newly remodeled Independence Room at CoServ headquarters, 7701 S. Stemmons Freeway, Corinth. Registration is open now for CoServ Employees, Lake Cities Chamber businesses and the general public. To sign up, visit redcrossblood.org, enter the sponsor code “COSERV” in the Find a Blood Drive box and then select your time slot.

CoServ Electric Linemen crews worked from sun up to sun down to relocate five utility poles along Stacy Road in McKinney so the city can install a right-turn lane. See how they set the new poles, cut down the old poles and hung the new wire – all without a single Member losing power.
