Stone renominated to Blue Ridge Coop Board

Mendel Stone will represent Oconee County for another three years on the board of Blue Ridge Electric Cooperative. During an Oconee County district meeting, Stone was renominated to be on the ballot for a vote of the Blue Ridge membership during the annual meeting on April 26, in Pickens. No one else was nominated. That’s not the case for a seat representing Pickens County. Incumbent Franklin Looper Jr. will face Jason Dennis. A second incumbent from Pickens County, Jimmy Lee Dodgens, was re-nominated without opposition.
