Concern for community is one of Cass County Electric Cooperative's (CCEC) five core values. We believe that by investing in the people, businesses, and organizations within our service territory, we can play a role in paving a brighter future for the communities we serve.
Growth and progress are rooted in preserving history; that's why CCEC is proud to support the Ransom County Historical Society (RCHS). Through the My Co-op Cares program, members of CCEC's team spent Thursday, Aug. 8 volunteering at the Ransom County Historical Society.
Seated in the beautiful Sheyenne River Valley, the RCHS is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and manages, exhibits, and preserves historically significant artifacts that are representative of the history of Ransom County. Surpassing a century of age, the museum is being prepared for a foundation renovation.
From moving shelves and antiques to lifting a wooden floor that has held its ground since 1904, CCEC team members helped prepare the museum for renovation.
"We're so appreciative of CCEC's commitment to helping keep our history alive," RCHS Board President NancyLee Loftsgard said. "The significance of the work done was outstanding."
CCEC is committed to continuing to uplift the wonderful organizations that make southeastern North Dakota a special place to live.
