We have a winner in our smart thermostat solar eclipse giveaway!

Congratulations to Sarah from Evanston for being selected to receive a smart thermostat as part of our special solar eclipse giveaway.

Although she said she isn’t “quotable,” Sarah said she was grateful for the work CUB has done.

“I do appreciate all the hard work CUB puts forth into trying to protect the average citizen from the greedy utility companies,” Sarah said. “I really find it helpful that CUB goes out of their way to keep us informed.”

On Monday, Aug. 21, a total solar eclipse passed over Illinois. Those in the Carbondale area were in what’s called the “path of totality,” the 70-mile swath of land where the moon completely blocks the sun.
