Barger, Wotkyns have skills to lead well

True leaders who are willing to offer their time and expertise for community good are to be thanked and appreciated. Two such people, Jim Wotkyns and Karen Barger, have committed themselves to our community in many ways but now are running for election to the board of directors at La Plata Electric Association.

For decades, these two people repeatedly have demonstrated compassion, vision and leadership in our community. Their experience of successful business management is exactly the kind of skill good board members need at La Plata Electric. We certainly are lucky that such fine people will step forward to unselfishly offer their time and experience for the benefit of all of us.

Please join us in voting for Jim Wotkyns (District 3, Durango) and Karen Barger (District 4, north and east La Plata County) for La Plata Electric Association board of directors. They each have the skill sets and the vision to move us into the electrical future through balanced, thoughtful and effective leadership.

If they are willing to set aside hundreds of hours per year out of their busy schedules for us, the least we can do is find the LPEA ballot that comes in the mail and vote for them. Good governance starts by electing good people.
