Sequachee Valley Electric Coop has welcomed home local linemen who recently traveled to South Carolina to provide mutual aid to Blue Ridge Electric Cooperative, Inc. in the wake of Hurricane Helene’s devastation.

These remarkable men spent almost 10 days helping to rebuild Blue Ridge Electric’s system, restoring power and hope to communities heavily impacted by the storm.

A statement from SVEC: We’re incredibly grateful for their safe return and couldn’t be prouder of their commitment to helping our neighbors in need. They truly exemplify the spirit of cooperation and what it means to be part of a cooperative family.
