Teddy Bear Trot

Due to concerns related to the spread of COVID-19 Teddy Bear Trot 2020 has been cancelled. York Electric’s priority is looking out for you, which means keeping you and others safe in our community. YEC has been monitoring the Coronavirus (COVID-19) threats closely and we have decided, in accordance with the recommendations from the Center of Disease Control and Prevention and our local and state health departments, to cancel the 2020 Teddy Bear Trot 5k and Fun Run, previously scheduled for March 28th. All persons who registered online through our RunSignUp page will receive a refund for their registration fees. We appreciate your patience as we work to do our part in protecting the health of our community members.

While we unfortunately must cancel our event, you can still support this worthy cause from the safety of your home! Join the fight against child abuse by supporting the Children’s Attention Home, a local shelter for abused and neglected children and teens. Read on to find out how you can help!

We appreciate your patience as we continue to serve our local communities and look out for your best interest with the ongoing concerns of Coronavirus (COVID-19). For any questions or concerns regarding this cancellation, please email Erin Powell at .

For more information on the efforts we are making to increase awareness and safety measures during this time, visit us online at www.yorkelectric.net or speak to one of our Member Services Representatives by calling 803-684-4248.

To still support the Children’s Attention Home, you can:

• Give financially. Ensuring they have the financial means to respond to the needs of their children during this time is paramount.
• Check their needs list for any supplies you may be able to help with during this time.
• Stay connected through Facebook, Instagram, and www.attentionhome.org/give!

YEC partners with York County DSS and the Children’s Attention Home of York County to raise awareness of child abuse and neglect. Proceeds aid foster children at the Children’s Attention Home, which provides a safe, nurturing environment for children removed from their homes due to abuse and neglect.

Together with the York County Department of Social Services, York Electric will host the third annual Teddy Bear Trot on Saturday, March 30, 2019, benefiting the Children’s Attention Home of York County. Scan the QR code to take advantage of the early bird pricing from now through March 18 for our certified and timed 5k race and mile-long fun run/walk!

Race prices from now until March 18 will be $30 for participants 13 years of age and older. The cost for children 12 years of age and younger will be $15. After March 18, prices will increase to $40 per person. Participants who register before March 18 will be guaranteed a race shirt. All race participants will be entered to win various door prizes and will be given a snow cone from Pelican’s SnoBalls of York.

Can’t come but still want to support the cause? Register as a Couch Cuddlier for $15 and still receive a shirt! All shirts must be picked up at York Electric’s main office no later than Friday, April 5.
