The July issue of Alabama Living highlights the values that built both our nation and Joe Wheeler EMC. The cover story, "Powering Freedom: It's the Cooperative Way," draws a powerful connection between America's 250th anniversary and Joe Wheeler EMC's upcoming 90th anniversary, exploring how freedom, local leadership, and neighbors working together have shaped both our country and the electric cooperative movement. From bringing electricity to rural North Alabama in 1937 to expanding fiber broadband through FlashFiber today, the story celebrates the cooperative spirit that continues to power our communities.
In this issue, you'll also read about Joe Wheeler EMC employees who went above and beyond during a power outage by building a safe nesting platform for a pair of osprey in Spring Creek, learn about FlashFiber's new experience-based internet packages, and discover why transparent pricing and local service continue to set FlashFiber apart.
