Bluebonnet Electric Cooperative will send two journeyman line worker teams, seven apprentice line workers and six competition judges, as well as a barbecue team and additional volunteers, to the Texas Lineman’s Rodeo at Nolte Island Park near Seguin on July 16.

After the event was canceled for two years, everyone from participants to volunteers are ready to return to the competition fields.

The event gives line workers a chance to compete against peers from across Texas, and to demonstrate the skills they use in their jobs.

Come cheer on Bluebonnet’s competitors in person or track their progress on our social media pages that day.
