Parke REMC to sponsor students at Touchstone Camp

Parke County REMC will sponsor five students at the annual Touchstone Energy Camp to be held June 6-9 at Camp Tecumseh in Brookston.

Students entering seventh grade in the fall of 2018 are eligible to attend and are selected by their local cooperative to participate in the three-day program.

The students’ agenda combines traditional outdoor camp activities with environmental education, electrical safety practices and cooperative business education.

Applications for the camp are available by contacting the Parke County REMC office, 765-569-3133 or ckilby@pcremc.com. Applications are due March 1.

The Touchstone Energy Camp is funded in part by Indiana’s electric cooperatives, Hoosier Energy, Wabash Valley Power, Indiana Electric Cooperatives and other industry partners.

Parke County REMC, located in Rockville, is an electric utility cooperative serving more than 10,000 members in Parke, Putnam, Montgomery, Clay, Fountain and Vigo counties and maintaining more than 1,800 miles of line.
