An early morning outage on Camp Wasega Road in Lumpkin County resulted in 311 members out of power. Around 6:00 a.m. a large tree fell on the power line, breaking a pole in the process. We appreciate Lumpkin County Road Department and their work on clearing the debris out of the road.
All power has now been restored.
It pays to enter early! We had 138 teachers beat the early bird deadline which puts them in the random gift card drawing! The following teachers will be receiving a gift card in the mail!
Congratulations! Also, stay tuned, in October, representatives from Amicalola EMC will be making the rounds visiting schools to surprise winning teachers who have won grant money for their classrooms!
Help is on the way! During extended power outages in our service area, we are always glad to see crews arriving to help restore power! Hurricane #Idalia is giving one Amicalola EMC crew an opportunity to pay that assistance back. Seven line crew members left today headed to Coastal EMCs service area in Midway, GA which serves almost 19,000 members in Bryan, Liberty, Long and McIntosh counties. Mutual aid agreements allow us to receive help when we need it and give help when others are in need….it’s the cooperative way! Wishing them safe travels, safety while working and a speedy return home. #Adalia #coopnation
Who’s accidentally left ceiling fans running in an empty room? Don’t worry, we’ve done it too. Turn them off when you leave the room to #SaveEnergy.

Last night, the annual Amicalola EMC (AEMC) Task Force banquet was held at Chattahoochee Technical College in Jasper. Close to 100 members from across the AEMC service area enjoyed a meal and listened to remarks by Board Chairman Charles Fendley, CEO Todd Payne, GA Representative Rick Jasperse (R), District 11 and GA Representative Johnny Chastain (R), District 7.
Since 1972, the AEMC Task Force has served as a voice for the electric cooperative, helping to educate others on key issues relating to the EMC. The role of the Task Force has also become an important part of legislative communications.
Thanks to Shade Tree BBQ for a delicious meal.
To maximize ceiling fan efficiency, rotate the blades counterclockwise during summer months.
Today is National 811 Day. Play it safe! If you’re planning any projects that require digging, remember to contact 811 at least five days before the work begins.
Our crews are still working hard and we are now down to 637 members out of power at 32 separate locations. Thank you for your patience and we’ll keep working hard to get the lights back on!
