2011 Texas Lineman's Rodeo Results
Congratulations to Bluebonnet's Texas Lineman's Rodeo team. Our linemen and apprentices brought home three trophies from Saturday's competition in Seguin.
Journeymen Kenny Roland and Gary Barabas (of Red Rock) and Jeff Hohlt (of Brenham) won second place in the Overall Senior Division. Apprentice Danny Bolding (of Red Rock) won third place in the Overall Apprentice event while Matt Hollingsworth (of Brenham) won third in the Written Test category.
The annual rodeo offers our electric utility workers the chance to showcase the precision skills they use every day to keep our members' power on. Bluebonnet's team showed how they do successfully, safely and reliably.
