The Brand Champion Award is a significant honor to individuals who have made outstanding contributions to the development, growth, and success of the Touchstone Energy brand.
Bryce is a shining example of why the brand is as strong and successful as it is today," said Jim Bausell, COO of Touchstone Energy. "This type of leadership on behalf of the Touchstone Energy brand has had an impact in their local, regional and state communities."
"This award is a testament to the recognition and support our Executive Vice President and Board of Directors has for Touchstone Energy," said Cramer. "They recognize that in these tough times, our membership in Touchstone Energy helps us deliver quality programs, such as the Co-op Connections discount card, the prescription drug discount and energy efficiency programs like TogetherWeSave.com, to our members. Without a national partner like Touchstone Energy, we would not be able to bring these to our members."
