SUPERINTENDENT/FOREMAN CONFERENCEWatertown, SD

This was MY first Superintendent/Foreman Conference and was everything I expected. I hope that it met everyone else’s expectations as well. It was great to meet so many new people and get to know some of the personnel from the member municipalities. It would be even better if this conference could grow next year and more Superintendent/Foremen could have the opportunity to attend. Getting together and building those relationships is one of the great services that being a member of the SDMEA offers. I also thought there were many wonderful presenters who were very knowledgeable about their topics and could be excellent contacts/references to any electrical municipalities who are looking to improve the services for their consumers.

Duane Henderson from Cree speaks about LED lighting in Municipalities.

Alan Freng speaks to the group about the South Dakota Retirement System.

Joni Livingston from Missouri River Energy Services gives an update about the Red Rocks Dam Project.

Casey Crabtree from Heartland Consumers Power District gave an update on HCPD’s Economic Development.

Alann Miller gives a presentation on incident command and emergency management.

The Vendor Show and Social did not disappoint as we had over 20 vendors who donated excellent door prizes. After the vendor show, a wonderful Prime Rib dinner gave us all a chance to relax and discuss the day’s presentations.

DCI presents on recognizing one-pot meth labs.

Mike Willets discusses NESC and NEC.

As a committee, we are always looking for input and hope that if you have any topics that you would like to see presented in the future, or if you know of any vendors who may be good to have for our electrcial departments, please let us know. My contact information is at the bottom of this page and we are always wanting fresh ideas to have for the conference.

Please spread the word for anyone who might be interested in attending as this experience will definitely benefit everyone’s HOMETOWN.

Until next month!
