Community

East Resources is dedicated to the communities we live and work in. In today's tough economic times East continues to grow and help fuel the local economy. We hire local people who care about the community and local economy as much as their neighbors do. We participate in several organizations and contribute to programs that help the area's youth develop skills inside and outside the classroom, because they are our future.



Thank you East!

In his talk, entitled "Energy," Paul discussed the history of oil and natural gas exploration in the Appalachian Basin and said "There's a lot of gas out there to be found, and we're going to go find it."He added "Though North America makes up only about 7% of the world's population, it uses 27% of the world's energy," and said "Having a high standard of living requires a lot of energy.."

Lincoln County High School


On behalf of the Lincoln County Board of Education, our students, staff and parents, please accept our heartfelt thanks for the generous donation from East Resources, Inc., to the new Lincoln County High School. These funds, totaling $25,000, will be used to purchase furnishings and equipment for the school's science classrooms and labs.

We are excited about the opportunities and experiences this new facility will bring to our students. As you know, it is a state of the art building that is nearing completion and we believe the generosity of Mr. Pegula and East Resources will enhance the success of those students who will start there in the fall of 2006.

We have a total of four science classrooms complete with fully operational labs, something we've never had in the county. Our students will be able to participate in experiments, have hands-on science lessons, and have the opportunity to excel in various areas of science that were not possible before. We invite you to tour this facility at your convenience and share our excitement as we anticipate opening the doors to major educational advancements in the fall of 2006. We deeply appreciate the generosity of East Resources, Inc., a true partner with Lincoln County High School.

- William K Grizzell, Superintendent, Lincoln County High School
