Doc and Prairie Wife Congratulate ComTronix on 30 Years!

We recently had the pleasure of discussing a pretty major milestone with Bruce Kopperud, president and owner of ComTronix. The company he started back in 1989 with Richard Fisher and Rob Dobler is thriving and celebrating 30 years of serving Wyoming residents.

We agree with Bruce that Wyoming residents like him and many of his employees can best serve the special needs of our area — and you can really trust a long-standing, locally owned company to have the community's best interests at heart.

ComTronix specializes in security solutions for home and business, including access control, business telephone systems, closed circuit TV surveillance, fire alarm systems, overhead paging and more. Bruce and his team have weathered the near constant changes in technology over the years.

"It's an on-going challenge to keep up with technology changes," he said. "We found that we typically don't want to jump too soon into a new technology but not too late as well. We spend a lot of time looking at technology and things we feel we can bring to the table for our customers."

To celebrate this rich history and to thank its customers, ComTronix is hosting an open house from 3 to 8 p.m. Friday, Aug. 9 at its main office, 800 W. Collins Drive in Casper.

During the open house, guests also will get to place "Comtronix bucks" in bins representing five area charities, and Comtronix will donate to each based on the amount left in each bin:

• Meals on Wheels
• The Salvation Army
• Central Wyoming Hospice
• Central Wyoming Rescue Mission
• YMCA

They'll have complimentary food and beer from HQ BBQ and Gruner Brothers Brew Company. RSVPs are appreciated by calling 307-265-8838. Sounds like a fun event!
