CVEC Presents Clocks to New Lincoln Elementary
TALLADEGA, Ala. - Frank Kujawski, general manager for Coosa Valley Electric
Cooperative, presented 56 clocks to Lincoln Elementary Principal Dorothy Wright
Monday, September 17.
"We had approached Mrs. Wright about another project we wanted to do with
her school when she indicated that she had some other needs, and clocks turned
out to be one of them," Kujawski said. "We are proud to be able to
offer these nice-looking clocks to the students of Lincoln."
The clocks are black and white, measure a full 14 inches and display all 12
numbers in large type for easy viewing. They feature the Coosa Valley Electric
Cooperative name and Touchstone Energy logo. To help them fit in with the race-theme
of the new Lincoln Elementary School, a set of crossed checkered flags and the
saying: "Placing Education in the Winners Circle."
The clocks are battery powered to enable operation during electrical outages.
Battery power also allows the clocks to be removed for instructional purposes
when students are learning to tell time.
Coosa Valley Electric, which serves more than 15,000 customers in Talladega,
St. Clair, Shelby, Clay, Etowah and Calhoun counties, is a Touchstone Energy7
cooperative. Nationwide, some 1,000 cooperatives provide power to rural America,
and 570 of those operate under the Touchstone Energy umbrella.
