Kids Electrical Safety Artwork Contest

KIDS, WE NEED YOUR HELP!

Grab your imagination and some art supplies and help OTEC tell our members how you play and work safely around electricity!

Safety is a top priority at Oregon Trail Electrical Cooperative. To help increase awareness of safe electricity use, your cooperative holds a Electrical Safety Artwork Contest for children living in OTEC’s service territories.

For 2021, kids can either download the coloring page below, or create their own poster with the theme: "How do you stay safe at home or farm when around electricity?"

Cash prizes will be awarded for each age division!
