YouthPower Energy Camp! Energy Camp, a fun-fi lled, four-day camp,
builds leadership skills in students while teaching them what it means to be part of a cooperative. T e attendees form their own coke and candy co-op and elect a board of directors and a general manager. In addition to conducting “co-op” business, camp activities include team-building exercises, electrical safety demonstrations, lineman-assisted electric pole-climbing and bucket truck ride (rising 50 feet in the air!), and an afternoon at Celebration Station. T e fi nal night, a pizza and dance party is held to celebrate the end of a fun week and the beginning of new friendships. To apply, eighth graders must write a 200-
word essay answering the question ‘How are cooperative diff erent than other businesses?’ Essays are due in OEC’s offi ce by 5 p.m., Monday, April 14. An entry form can be found at www.
okcoop.org. Energy Camp will be held May 27-30 at
Canyon Camp and Conference Center south of Hinton. Essays are due to OEC Monday, April 14 by 5 p.m. If you have any questions, contact youth programs coordinator Brianna Wall at 217-6708.
