The Town of Wake Forest and Wake Forest Power are joining more than 2,000 not-for-profit utilities in celebrating Public Power Week this week. Although this year’s Energy Expo and other in-person customer appreciation activities have been canceled due to COVID-19, Wake Forest and WFP are commemorating Public Power Week by utilizing social media to celebrate the benefits of public power and salute the folks who keep our lights on.
Throughout Public Power Week, WFP will post on Facebook a variety of information on themes ranging from Wake Forest’s public power history to the responsibilities of the divisions and staff that comprise the Town’s electric department. Kids will also have the chance to download a variety of coloring pages related to public power.
Finally, WFP will post videos of various electric safety demonstrations typically offered in Centennial Plaza during Customer Appreciation Day. These demonstrations include the “Hurt Man Rescue” and tips for planting around transformers.
