Basin Electric employees held "Cakes for a Cause" in which an employee donated a box of diapers in exchange for a stack of green pancakes on St. Patrick's Day. The diapers, which went to the Great Plains Food Bank, were chosen because they are the food bank's top need. More than 5,100 diapers were collected.
