Mendel Stone re-niominated

The prospects look good for South Union community’s Mendel Stone to be returned to a seat on the board of directors of the Blue Ridge Electric Cooperative. At a nomination meeting Monday, Stone’s name was the only one offered for the seat representing Oconee County. Fifty-six members of the Co-Op attended the nomination meeting. As things now stand, Stone will stand for re-election when Blue Ridge holds its annual membership meeting April 30 in Pickens.
