Crow Wing Power Scholarship

Crow Wing Power (officially named Crow Wing Cooperative Power and Light Company) was begun in 1937 thanks to the formation of the Rural Electrification Administration (REA) by Franklin D. Roosevelt. On March 24, 1938 power to the first 140 Crow Wing Power members was turned on for the first time.

Crow Wing Power is an electric cooperative serving 39,000 members in Cass, Crow Wing and Morrison Counties. They value our hardworking employees and embrace their dedication to serving cooperative members. Their core business is delivering and maintaining reliable electricity at the lowest possible cost. Cooperative members are the owners of Crow Wing Power and any profits over and above operating margins are returned to members in the form of capital credits. Crow Wing Power’s main office is located in Brainerd, MN and they have service outposts for linemen in Pierz and Swanburg east of Pine River.
