On Nov. 9, and in addition to honoring Veterans Day, Chad Kinsley, Black Hills Energy vice president of operations for Arkansas Gas, and Mr. William Wafford, Arkansas Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR) chair, signed a Statement of Support pledging a commitment to support our service members currently serving in the Guard and Reserve.    

Mr. Wafford highlighted the purpose of ESGR and what its role is for employers and employees who serve. He then thanked Black Hills Energy Arkansas for its public commitment to recognize, support and honor military members.

Chad Kinsley made closing remarks and said, “By signing this statement, we are an employer who supports Service Member participation in the military, and supportive employers are critical to maintain strength and readiness in the nation’s Guard and Reserve units”.

We partner with our communities and customers, providing the kind of energy that fuels those areas and the lives of those we serve. Feel free to share the stories and photos. Make sure to tag us on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and Twitter.
