There are many sides to Zack Ziegenhagen.

From his days as a student at The Dalles High School, to hunting with his dad, to making us laugh with his sense of humor, Zack has always brought energy and determination to everything he does.

Today, though, we’re celebrating a major accomplishment.

Zack has officially passed the Oregon Journeyman Electrician Exam. ⚡

Becoming a journeyman electrician doesn’t happen overnight. It takes thousands of hours working in the field, years of classroom instruction, dedication to learning the National Electrical Code, and a commitment to mastering a craft that keeps our homes, businesses, and communities running safely.

Over the years, Zack has worked alongside and learned from many outstanding electricians, including Taner Elliott, Dean Roderick, Daryl Richman, and countless others who have invested their time and knowledge in the next generation of our trade.

He has spent years balancing work, apprenticeship classes, studying, and the daily challenges that come with learning a skilled trade. The journeyman license represents more than passing a test—it’s proof of perseverance, professionalism, and a commitment to excellence.

Today we celebrate not only what Zack has accomplished, but the leader he is becoming at Hage Electric.

Congratulations, Zack. We couldn’t be more proud of you

Another great day of job shadowing at Hage Electric!

Recent The Dalles High School graduate Zakery Greene spent the day with one of our Rock Star electricians Daryl Richman, getting a firsthand look at the electrical trade.

By the end of the day, it was clear Zakery enjoyed the experience and could see himself pursuing a career in the trades. Opportunities like these give young people a chance to explore career paths, ask questions, and discover where their talents and interests may lead.

We’re grateful to Daryl for sharing his knowledge and helping introduce the next generation to the skilled trades.

Congratulations to Zakery on his recent graduation, and a special shoutout to his parents for the support and encouragement that helped him reach this milestone.

We wish him the very best as he takes the next step in his journey. AND, we look forward to seeing him in a Hage Electric Truck!

You all are so welcome! Super Happy to help support such a great cause. Thank you for all you do for the sweet animals in The Gorge that are waiting for their forever homes. 🐾 also , Thank you to Taner for facilitating this all for them!

Our Dog kennels are aged and in pretty bad shape.

Our building recently had a major lighting upgrade to low energy LED lights. Although this upgrade was much needed it left some kennels a little dark and gloomy.

We reached out to Hage Electric & Construction Services, Inc. for some help and they didn’t hesitate for even a second to lend a helping hand. Thank you Hage Electric for your support and helping us keep the dogs as comfortable as possible while they wait for their forever homes 🐾 🩷

As the Distinguished Young Women of Wasco County participants prepare for their program this Saturday, it’s a good reminder of the families behind these incredible young women.

Riley Elliott is one of them, and we’re lucky to know her through her dad, Taner, our Service and Residential Managing Electrician. You can truly see the support, encouragement, and values these parents have poured into their daughters.

Wishing Riley and all the participants the very best this weekend you’ve already made your families and community proud. 💙

Brianna joined Josh for a job shadow today—what a perfect day to get a real-world look at the electrical trade.

This is where future careers begin-learning, asking questions, and getting hands-on experience. Always glad to support the next generation stepping into the trades.

Thank you Taner Elliott for always supporting and making these Job Shadowing opportunities possible.

We’re proud to support Riley Elliott, a participant in the Distinguished Young Women of Wasco County this year.

Riley recently stopped by to visit with Matt and Shannon Garrett and share more about the program and her involvement. We were incredibly impressed by her poise, goals, and dedication.

Distinguished Young Women is a scholarship program that encourages leadership, academic excellence, and community involvement among high school seniors. Riley represents these qualities well, and we’re excited to be a small part of her journey this year.

Best of luck, Riley — we’re cheering you on!🌟📣

Women in Construction Week

Today we’re recognizing Annette, our Business Manager at Hage Electric and Construction Services.

Annette is the financial and operational backbone of our company. 💪🏻 She keeps the business side of things running smoothly so our field teams can stay focused on the work they do best.

Her role includes financial inquiries and managing vendor accounts, company administration, and helping oversee the day-to-day business operations that keep everything moving. She’s also the person our customers can count on when they have billing questions or need help with their account.

Construction takes a strong team both in the field and behind the scenes, and Annette’s knowledge, dedication, and steady leadership are a big part of what keeps Hage Electric running the way it should.

We’re grateful for everything she brings to the team every day. NECA/IBEW Local 48

Women in Construction Week

We can’t let this week go by without recognizing Amy, our Office Manager at Hage Electric.

Amy brings strong leadership and organization to everything she does. She plays an important role in keeping our team connected and our operations running smoothly.

She jokingly calls herself the “Chaos Coordinator,” and around here we like to say she’s really just herding cats most days. Anyone who’s worked in construction knows that’s no small job!

For many of our customers, Amy is the first voice they hear when they call Hage Electric, and she represents Hage with professionalism and kindness. For our team members she can be the lifeline that makes their day run smoothly.

We’re grateful for the leadership Amy brings to the job every day. NECA/IBEW Local 48
