Dawson PPD hosted an open house at the Lexington headquarters to celebrate the District’s 80th anniversary. The weather was perfect for the May 4, event, which was held as a business after hours event with the Lexington Chamber of Commerce. Guests toured the facility, learned about the District’s history and current engineering practices. A highlight was the opportunity to ride in a bucket truck.
A time capsule was buried to mark the occasion. Contents included financial reports, an insulator, a piece of conductor, linemen gear and Willie Wiredhand memorabilia. The time capsule will be opened on the District’s 100th anniversary in 2037.
