Daviess-Martin County REMC
Daviess-Martin County REMC is a member-owned electric cooperative headquartered in Loogootee, Indiana. As a cooperative, Daviess-Martin County REMC follows seven core principles that are universal to cooperatives worldwide. Among those principles is one stressing education, training and information. Indiana Connection, a monthly magazine published especially for Indiana’s electric cooperative members, is one way the REMC informs and educates its members. Indiana Connection is available not only in a print format, but as an electronic publication for those who prefer getting their information on their electronic devices.
