Wyoming’s gas and electric teams celebrate 811 Day
811

This year’s 811 Day was a huge success in Wyoming! 

Our employees visited local excavators in Wyoming communities, including Douglas and Casper, delivering more than 20 coolers with iced down water and Gatorade to keep crews cool and to deliver an important reminder – always call 811 before you dig! 

Additionally, radio ads featuring 811 safety messages have been aired statewide and news stories published by local associations and newspapers. The Wyoming team will continue to build partnerships with excavators and organizations with the hope of keeping safe digging top of mind. 

A huge thank you to all our Wyoming team members for supporting this year’s outreach. 

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 FacebookInstagram, LinkedIn and Twitter.
