Randy Nixon, left, and Dakota Conner will travel to Guatemala to help bring power to a remote village. The two Snapping Shoals EMC employees will be part of a team of linemen from across the state taking part in the project sponsored by the NRECA International Fund.
Randy Nixon and Dakota Conner know hard work. The two Snapping Shoals EMC linemen have spent countless hours building power lines and working in the worst conditions restoring power to SSEMC members during many storms. Now Nixon and Conner are ready for a new challenge — to bring power to the people of Guatemala.
Nixon, a resident of Newton County, and Conner, a Rockdale County resident, are traveling to Guatemala where they will spend more than two weeks building a 4-mile line to a remote village that has never had power.
