FreeState’s mission is to provide members with safe, reliable and affordable electricity, and on Saturday, Aug. 26, at the Topeka Zoo you’ll get to see firsthand how FreeState powers you. 

We are so excited to see you again this year from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. because we’ll be powering you at the Topeka Zoo! 

The Topeka Zoo is the perfect place for us to provide a fun-filled day that you and your family can enjoy — together — no matter what generation you are. 

Crew at the Zoo is a day that FreeState employees and trustees celebrate you with free entry to the zoo, lunch and a chance to spend the day as a family. You will find your express entry pass in this issue, your August bill, or on our website. Just fill it out and bring it with you to the zoo to get your adventure pass and wristbands. If you’d like to get your wristbands and passes early, stop by either office during zoo week — Aug. 21-24 — and pick them up. Our offices are open from 7 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. 

We will have a bucket truck, safety displays, energy efficiency information, and interactive activities you can check out while learning all about how FreeState powers your home. You’ll get to learn about all the infrastructure that helps FreeState distribute power that is there at the flip of a switch. 

We want to see as many of you as possible, and you’ll have from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. to stop by. You can find more information about our event at www.freestate.coop/zoo. 

We hope you’ll come out and join us because we are most excited to have the opportunity to talk to you, see you, and meet some of you for the first time.
