Why the monthly "Watt High Lights"?

"Watt High Lights," Jackson County REMC's monthly newsletter, has been mailed to the cooperative's members every month since the first issue was published in June 1946. Fred Schleter, a new REMC employee at that time, had arrived just a month before and was assigned the task of starting a monthly publication to keep members informed of the rapidly changing world of rural electrification.

 

Why begin a newsletter, you ask? In 1946, the only ways of communicating across a broad area were telephones, radios, and the United States Post Office. Not everyone had telephones or radios back then, but every REMC member had a mailbox! The newsletter became the most consistent and efficient method of keeping our members informed of new appliances and equipment, wiring information, and changes in the REMC's procedures and policies. In today's world of instant communication through e-mail, the internet, and fax machines, we still think that our newsletter is the easiest, most economical, and most efficient way to reach each and every member, each and every month.

 

We certainly welcome your comments and suggestions to keep the "Watt High Lights" a welcome arrival in your mailbox each month.
