Annette Creekpaum Receives Prestigious NWPPA Leadership Award

We’re excited to share that CEO Annette Creekpaum was awarded the Paul J. Raver Community Service Award from the Northwest Public Power Association (NWPPA). This prestigious award recognizes outstanding leadership in strengthening electric systems and supporting community betterment in the region. Annette was recognized at NWPPA’s Annual Conference earlier this month for her leadership at Mason PUD 3 and contributions to the broader public power community.

Over her more than 25 years in public service, including over a decade leading Mason PUD 3, Annette has helped guide the District through major advances in electric reliability, broadband expansion, employee development, and customer service that directly benefit Mason County communities. She has been a strong advocate for rural and community-owned utilities across the Northwest, helping ensure the perspectives of smaller public power providers are represented through regional collaboration and industry leadership.

Please take a moment to congratulate Annette on this well-deserved recognition!
