For the second time in three years, the N. F. Leifer Memorial Journalism Award was presented to Eau Claire Energy Cooperative’s Mary Kay Brevig, manager – communications & public relations, by the Wisconsin Electric Cooperative Association recently in Madison. The Co-op’s monthly magazine was judged consistently as the best of the Wisconsin Electric Cooperative News editors for 2015. Brevig has served as editor for ECEC for the past 16 years and also received the award in 2013. The award’s namesake, “Lefty” Leifer, Vernon Electric Cooperative manager during the 1940s, was instrumental in the creation of the Wisconsin REA News as the nation’s first statewide rural electric publication. The magazine can be found on ECEC’s web site at www.ecec.com. Click on the MY CO-OP tab.
