Director Retirement - 49 Years Of Service

We are honored to celebrate the retirement of Underwood Director Paul Beckman. Paul is retiring after serving on the Park Region Board of Directors for 49 years. He played an invaluable role in guiding our cooperative to where it is today, and we are ever grateful for his dedication and commitment to our infrastructure and community. When asked by GM/CEO Dave Bickett to comment on his retirement at the 2025 Park Region Annual Meeting & Customer Appreciation Event, Paul simply said “it’s been a ride.” It has indeed— and while we are sad to say goodbye, we are filled with pride and excitement for the new chapter he’s about to begin. Please join us as we congratulate Paul Beckman and thank him for his outstanding service!
