GUC went back to school September 7th -- at ECU! We joined with other community businesses and organizations to share information for students, faculty, and staff at the Chamber's "Get a Clue" Merchants Fair. 

"It's always great to talk with students about how easy it is to get their utilities set up," said Linda Clark. "With our new online tools, it's better than ever, and they appreciate knowing that."
