| WWII veteran was trailblazer |
 |
| Palmetto Electric Cooperative retiree and Ridgeland native Mary Smith Cope was in eighth grade when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, but even then she knew she was going to serve if she got the opportunity. "I'm very proud of the role women play in the military. Every time I see a woman in uniform, I try to talk to them because it makes me proud of what we did." |

From the CEO
Co-op provides cash, trips for students
ONE OF THE MOST rewarding things about working at an electric co-op is the opportunity to give back to our community. At Palmetto Electric Cooperative, we particularly enjoy helping young people enrich their lives through education.
Energy Efficiency Tip
Switch to energy-saving halogen incandescent light bulbs to cut lighting energy use by 25 percent. These bulbs last three times longer than traditional incandescent bulbs and can easily be dimmed. Want to save more? Compact fluorescent lamps (CFLs) and light- emitting diodes (LEDs) cut lighting energy use by at least 75 percent. Learn more at energysavers.gov.
