The Story of Zip & Zap
Nestled in the heart of the Pacific Northwest, twin squirrels Zip and Zap lived in an acorn house near Spada Lake. Known for their boundless energy and curiosity, they thrived in their lush forest home. Zip had an incredible knack for working with her paws, while Zap excelled at understanding complex systems. Other forest creatures appreciated the squirrels talent for environmental stewardship and community building.
After completing their studies at Spada Squirrel School, they started jobs at a local acorn factory. Sorting nuts all day left the squirrels feeling like empty shells. Thankfully, their talents were soon recognized by the Snohomish County PUD.
One sunny afternoon, a representative from the utility company with close ties to the forest community visited the acorn house, offering them positions as mascots. Eager to serve their community, Zip and Zap joined the PUD, with Zip thriving on the line crews and Zap excelling in customer service. Their presence brought warmth and friendliness to the company, fostering a sense of community and reliability. Their journey from an acorn house to becoming utility mascots stands as a testament to the power of nature, family, and making a positive impact.
