While looking for something to do at our table to make it “stand out”, we started taking all our cups and stacking them while the event was doing their raffle prizes directly in front of us. Well our cup tower eventually fell over and cups went everywhere and everyone turned around at the sound. I guess that’s one way to “stand out”! Luckily there were a couple kids that were professionals and helped us build it back and better…after a couple other times the cups fell and drew the crowd to turn towards us. Marketing wise, this would have been genius if it was on purpose! 😂

If you are in the Belleville, O’Fallon, or Mascoutah area today, stop by the 100 Years of Horsepower Farm Event and see us at our table to grab some free goodies and maybe talk about your insurance needs that we could help you with.

Belle Prairie Mutual was a first time, proud sponsor of the 2026 McKendree Football Golf Tournament this last Friday, July 24th. The ladies from our New Baden office were happy to greet the golfers, give away some goodies, and spread the word about our merger with Southern Mutual Insurance. Good times were had by all with perfect weather and the golfers seemed very appreciative that Belle Prairie was the drink sponsor for the event as well. Looking forward to continuing our sponsorship for years to come and support the McKendree University sports program.

We guess it's better late then never to announce this, but effective back on January 1, 2025, Belle Prairie Mutual Insurance Company had expanded it's coverage territory to the entire state of Illinois (except Lake & Cook County) through the mergers with Loran Mutual Insurance Company based out of Pearl City, IL up north and Southern Mutual Insurance Company based out of New Baden, IL down south.

We have been happy to welcome our new policyholders and agents through these mergers, and are honored to continue their legacies of superior customer service while providing coverage for home, farm, rentals, and tenant policies.

We have been so busy with the mergers and the numerous storms since early January 2025, that we had not had a chance to make it "Facebook Official". We are also currently working to finalize the details for our new updated website that will reflect the additional coverage territory and agencies, so look for that coming soon.

On Tuesday, our manager, TJ Welte, accepted the “2024 Company Achievement Award” presented by the Illinois Association of Mutual Insurance Companies (IAMIC), which was nominated and voted on by the mutual managers throughout Illinois. It was quite an honor just to be nominated, but pretty amazing to actually win the award. Thank you to all that voted! We promise to continue to do our best to provide excellent coverage and customer service to our policyholders, to ensure them that they are in the right hands!

Spring cleaning is a perfect time to check the water lines and valves for your toilets, kitchen/bathroom sinks, washing machines, water heaters, etc for old or corroded lines. $5-$10 in materials could save you thousands in water damage!!

This could be a game changer!

The Grain Weevil robot helps farmers manage stored grain, keeping them out of bins where they might lose their lives to grain entrapment.

If the month of June ended today, Belle Prairie Mutual will have seen the largest 3 month (April - June) increase in policy count that we have seen in AT LEAST the last 5 years…all during this crazy time of catastrophic storms! We must be doing something right!
