80th Anniversary Art Contest

80th Anniversary Art Contest

Greetings MEC Members,

Mohave Electric Cooperative (MEC) is moving full speed ahead this year. Applications for our $200 Classroom Grants are due March 15. We look forward to reviewing your submissions. We also hosted our famous magician and his show, Making Accidents Disappear, promoting electrical safety amongst elementary school students, and attended our annual legislative advocacy trip to the State Capitol. MEC Board of Directors and Officers advocated for our legislators on the importance of reliability and affordability policies for electric utilities especially not-for-profit cooperatives.

Mohave Electric successfully was awarded the USDA Broadband Technical Assistance (BTA) grant to start the pre-engineering work to bring TWN fiber to our eastern service territory which covers Wikieup north to Hualapai and Peach Springs and east to Nelson. Also, MEC and TWN registered to apply for the Arizona Commerce Authority Broadband Equity, Access, and Deployment (BEAD) program to continue expanding our fiber network to reach more members.

MEC is actively planning for our 80th Anniversary in 2026! That’s 80 years of providing safe, reliable, and affordable electricity to our members. To celebrate, we would like YOUR help. MEC is creating an art contest for creative designs from our members for our 80th Anniversary logo. That’s right, any member, family member, student, classroom group, or business member is welcome to submit original ideas or artwork by emailing MEC to be entered for a $100 prize. Just like our 75th Anniversary logo below, the 80th Anniversary logo will be featured on all our print and digital materials, website, outreach materials, etc. We look forward to your ideas and designs!

Submittals are due by June 30, 2025, and must include MEC colors and the full Mohave Electric Cooperative name somewhere in the design. MEC reserves final design, edits, approval, and copyrights to the logo.
