Annually, Northern Plains Electric sponsors a safety poster contest for children in kindergarten to sixth grade.  The purpose of the safety poster contest is to help make children aware of the dangers of electricity.  At Northern Plains, safety always comes first, and we are dedicated to doing our part to teach children how to be safe around electricity.  Winners will be announced on our Facebook page and featured in the Northern Plains local pages of the North Dakota Living magazine.  So, grab your art supplies and be creative!
