BPU celebrates 50th anniversary

Hundreds of people flocked to Main Street on Thursday evening to celebrate the 50-year anniversary of the founding of the McPherson Board of Public Utilities (BPU). BPU used the 50-year anniversary as a chance to thank customers for their support over the years.

“We just want to say thank you to the community, to our customers, since we have been a part here since 1969,” Carla Pearson with BPU said. “This is our way of saying thank you for supporting us.”
