Every year, young adults are honored with 4-H Gold Star Awards. The Gold Star Award is the highest county achievement award. South Plains Electric Cooperative, along with other area electric cooperatives, has had the honor of recognizing these young adults for 67 years. Many of our leaders have deep roots in the 4-H program.

We would also like to recognize area 4-H clubs, parents and leaders for developing leadership, advancing agriculture, improving living standards and enriching family and community life.

The dedicated men and women of Texas AgriLife Extension Service, who provide the leadership and training for 4-H clubs, receive our special thanks. Supporting the 4-H program is part of how South Plains Electric Cooperative does business. We deliver reliable service at the lowest possible cost, while looking out for our communities.
