Shawn Parker Seeking Seat on DEMCO Board

Central businessman Shawn Parker, former manager of distribution technology for DEMCO, has announced his candidacy for the DEMCO Board of Directors in the April 20 mail ballot to be sent to DEMCO customers.
Parker and his wife own The Spectacle, an optical company in the City of Central.
The district includes DEMCO customers in East Baton Rouge Parish south of Greenwell Springs Road and east of Airline Hwy.
Parker said, “You’ve heard the commercials from DEMCO, saying ‘The Power is in your hands!’ And that is true, the power is in your hands. You just need to know how to access that power.”
“How many of you know that you have a representative at DEMCO that should be looking out for your best interests? Do you feel like your voice is heard? Every year new DEMCO Board Members are elected by YOU and other DEMCO customers from 13 different districts. Those Board Members should be your voice, representing your interests relating to DEMCO’s business decisions.”
“I want to be your voice. I worked for DEMCO for nearly 20 years starting as an Electronics Technician and ended my career as the Manager of Distribution Technology. I left DEMCO in 2015 In order to start a small family business with my wife and children, and I am now running for a seat on DEMCO’s Board of Directors representing District 4. With your vote, I can promise you will have unparalleled access and representation at DEMCO.”
“Can you name the Board Member currently representing your interests? You can’t choose your power provider, but you can choose who represents you at the power company. It is time for a change, time for you to be heard.”
“The Power truly IS IN YOUR HANDS.”
