Ritzville makes good impression on utility group

Last week, Big Bend Electric Co-op hosted a BPA utility conservation roundtable at the Wheat Growers Annex. Over 40 people from Portland, eastern Oregon, Walla Walla, Tri-Cities, Prosser, Ellensburg, Spokane and Moses Lake attended the two-day meeting.

After the Monday session, a group of about 25 went to the Depot Museum for a tour of the historic structure. L.R. Keith spent about a half hour talking to the group about trains and telegraphs. These people were very impressed with our museum and appreciated the time L.R. spent telling them about this history.

We then went to dinner at Big Bend...
