SDCEA Hosts Booth at Mountain Mania Car Show

Sangre de Cristo Electric Association (SDCEA) had a great time at the Mountain Mania Car Show in Buena Vista on July 12. It was a pleasure to see the impressive lineup of cars from various eras and, most importantly, to connect with all the wonderful people who stopped by our booth.

We also enjoyed the opportunity to share critical safety tips about power lines. During our tabletop demonstration, we covered essential actions to take if you are in a car accident involving a power pole and highlighted how power lines can ignite vegetation — even when it seems green or damp.

Thank you to everyone who engaged with us at the event. We’re dedicated to keeping our community safe and informed, and we appreciate your interest in learning more about power line safety.

The car show is held annually, sponsored by the Buena Vista Optimist Club. The Optimist Club is a local organization of volunteers that are active in the community, supporting our youth and helping with many other local events and programs.
