Daviess-Martin County REMC sponsored eight students at the annual Camp Kilowatt, which was held June 4-7, 2025, at Camp Tecumseh in Brookston, Indiana.
Students entering seventh grade this fall were eligible to attend and were selected by their local cooperative to participate in the four-day program. The students’ agenda combined traditional outdoor camp activities, electrical safety practices, and cooperative business education.
“This was a great way for students to learn about the role of the electric cooperative in their community. On top of that, they experienced all the fun of camp,” said Becca Hollaway, communications specialist of Daviess-Martin County REMC.
Students representing Daviess-Martin County REMC at Camp Kilowatt were:
- Jayden Acrey Kinsey, Loogootee
- Deanna Burkhart, Washington
- Natalie Clarke, Washington
- Owen Lemons, Mitchell
- Taryn Mackey, Montgomery
- Taylor Thomas, Montgomery
- Hadley Wininger, Montgomery
- Cohen Yake, Washington
The Camp Kilowatt program was developed by a committee of Indiana electric cooperative employees. It is funded in part by Indiana’s electric cooperatives, Hoosier Energy, Wabash Valley Power Alliance, Indiana Electric Cooperatives, and other industry partners.
