Thank you!

On May 19th, at approximately 6:40 PM, severe storms, to include tornados in the northern section of our service territory, caused around 5,600 members to lose electricity. Thanks to the dedication of our line crews, power was fully restored on May 23rd at approximately 11:20 PM.

A special thank you goes out to Barry Electric, Co-Mo Electric, Ozark Electric, White River Electric, and PLC for providing additional linemen and equipment who worked tirelessly across several days. We are also thankful for the many First Responders and MODOT crews, who played a crucial role in ensuring everyone's safety during this time.

We also want to acknowledge the families of our employees, who offered their generous support in countless ways. Your willingness to help is truly appreciated.

Another sincere thank you to Bee's Kitchen, Subway, and the El Dorado Mexican Restaurant & Cantina for their assistance in preparing meals.

The restoration process was a significant challenge, with more than 150 broken poles and numerous obstacles, including damaged trees and muddy conditions. We are grateful for Asplundh Tree Expert LLC for their assistance in clearing many of these obstacles, enabling quicker restoration in many areas.

Despite the difficulties our linemen encountered, they remained committed to restoring power as quickly and safely as possible.

Thank you to all of our members for your patience and understanding during this unexpected event.

 

2025 Annual Meeting to Celebrate 85 Years

Sac Osage Electric Cooperative is excited to announce the celebration of its 85th anniversary with a return to its traditional roots. On September 9th, 2025, members will gather in person for the annual meeting, departing from the drive-through format that has been used in recent years.

In response to the recent pandemic, Sac Osage Electric Cooperative adopted a drive-through format for its annual meetings. This approach allowed members to participate while adhering to safety protocols. However, the upcoming 85th anniversary presents the perfect opportunity to revive the traditional gathering cherished by members for decades. This year’s meeting will take place at the Sac Osage Electric Cooperative Headquarters, providing a wonderful opportunity for members to reconnect, share experiences, and celebrate the cooperative’s rich history and achievements.

We invite you to join us on September 9th, 2025, for a memorable celebration that honors 85 years of dedicated service!

 

Possible Scam!

We have been alerted by a member of the Sac Osage Electric Cooperative about a potential scam.

The member reported being contacted with claims of overpaying for electric services and was told that a refund would be issued. However, when the member inquired further by asking questions like, "who is my electric cooperative?" the caller ended the conversation.

Please be aware of any scams and do not give out any personal information. If you have questions concerning your account, please contact us directly at 417-876-2721.
