Sharing a love of off-roading in Iowa
vets

Each year, team members in our Iowa offices roll out their all-terrain vehicles and head to the Iowa Veterans Home in Marshalltown, where they offer rides to residents.

Dan, a service technician in Pocahontas, is one of the northern Iowa volunteers who enjoys sharing his passion for ATVing. His veteran friend, first organized the eve about five years ago. The event has become so popular that volunteers now do it twice annually.

The ATV group also provides rides each year for people with intellectual disabilities at a facility in Algona, Iowa. “I have a blast giving rides,” Dan says. “It’s very rewarding to see their smiles and listen to them laugh, giggle and scream.

We partner with our communities and customers, providing the kind of energy that fuels those areas and the lives of those we serve. Feel free to share the stories and photos. Make sure to tag us on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn and Twitter.
