Ocala Electric Utility Customer Appreciation Day is Friday, Oct. 7

Ocala Electric Utility (OEU) will host a Customer Appreciation Day Friday, Oct. 7 at Citizens’ Circle, 151 SE Osceola Ave., 6 to 8 p.m. This event will be held in conjunction with Public Power Week happening Sunday, Oct. 2 through Saturday, Oct. 8.

To show appreciation for its customers, OEU will be providing food from the Mojo Grill and Catering Company, which will be available on a first-come, first-served basis. Meals will be individually portioned for grab-and-go convenience. This free event will also include entertainment, family-friendly activities, educational items, and giveaways. Appreciation prizes include bill credits to be used on customer accounts. Guests must have a City of Ocala municipal service account to qualify. Customers will spin the prize wheel to win utility vouchers with randomly assigned monetary values. There will be a limit of one voucher per household and vouchers must be redeemed within 30 days. Customers are responsible for redeeming their vouchers with the customer service office.

“Ocala Electric Utility is dedicated to the community we serve,” said Doug Peebles, Director of Electric Utilities, City of Ocala. “Public Power Week, along with our annual Customer Appreciation Day, help shed a light on OEU’s efforts as Ocala and Marion County’s hometown public power provider. These events are a sincere thank you to our customers that support us throughout the year.”
