Friday | July 12, 2024

Stuart Schools, Energy Management Technician & Master Technician, and Wesley Storke, Member Service Field Representative, attended the Caroline County Fire & Rescue Camp. Over the week, campers learn about a variety of safety, emergency and first-responder topics. REC presented a tabletop safety demo and spoke with the campers about how to stay safe around electricity. REC’s visit is a camper’s favorite each year!
