At Laketown Electric, we believe remarkable efforts deliver extraordinary outcomes and that extends beyond the work we do every day.

Last week, we were honored to partner with Feeding Our Communities Partners and so many incredible community leaders at Beer, Brats & Bourbon to support a cause that truly matters: ensuring local children have access to nutritious meals when school is out for the summer.

With a growing presence in Mankato, this community holds a special place in our hearts. It was inspiring to see businesses, organizations, and individuals come together around a shared mission of supporting food-insecure students and helping create a stronger future for local families.

Thank you to FOCP for the important work you do and to everyone who attended, donated, volunteered, and made an impact. Together, we’re helping ensure that more children have the nourishment they need to learn, grow, and thrive.

There’s a lot of conversation right now about the shortage of electricians, and for good reason. Demand is growing fast, driven by everything from data centers to energy infrastructure, but the talent pipeline isn’t keeping up.

In a piece our CEO Matt wrote for , he argues that if we truly want more electricians, we need to rethink how we present and structure careers in the trades.

That means:
• Clear, visible career pathways — from apprentice to leadership
• Competitive compensation and benefits
• A culture that values growth, purpose, and long-term opportunity

At Laketown Electric Corporation Electric, we’ve seen firsthand that when people can see a future in the trades, they choose it and they stay. The trades are one of the most important, and rewarding, career paths in our economy today.

In the past seven weeks, our team has hired 37 new employees, from sales and relationship leaders, to forepeople, to technical college interns, to a Director of AI and Business Optimization, all spread from 800+ applicants.

Take a look at the full op-ed here:

Young people will be drawn to the trades if they can see a clear career path. Policymakers and business can do more to address workforce gaps.
