Rapid City, South Dakota — Oct. 21, 2021 —Two Black Hills Energy employees in Rapid City, South Dakota, have received the company’s highest employee recognition from company CEO Linn Evans.

Among those receiving this year’s CEO Summit Award were employees Mutch Usera, a senior community relations program manager from Rapid City, and Stacey Denke, a senior finance manager from Rapid City, South Dakota.

The distinction acknowledges superior professional achievement and community service while supporting the development of a culture that recognizes performance, reinforces company values and standards, and promotes teamwork.

Evans presented the award this year and selected this year’s four honorees from 76 peer-nominated employees throughout the company’s 3,000 employees.
