Things Are Wrapping Up
Dear Consolidated Cooperative Member,

Welcome to August's E-News. In this issue, you'll find important health tips, ways to protect your garden this fall, and even a sweet treat to make before the kids head back to school.
We also hope you'll join us at the Morrow County Fair on August 30th for Touchstone Energy Day.

As the colder weather and flu season both are slowly creeping in, we hope you are preventing illness and soaking up the last long days of the season.

Best wishes,
Your Team at Consolidated Cooperative

Central Ohio Weather
Summer is one of the most common times for a storm to occur, which can create hazards.

Thunderstorms can produce damaging hail, flash flooding, and high winds. In addition to this, the effects of extreme heat can be irritated by power outages that can be caused by these storms.

Not sure what to do when a bad storm has been forecast or your electric is out? We've got you covered. Visit our website for tips and links to sign up for outage notifications.
