Two children from Harrison REMC attended Touchstone Energy Camp at Camp Tecumseh in Brookston, Indiana, from June 8–11. Harrison REMC has been a sponsor of this event for the last three years.

Campers enjoyed three days filled with summer camp activities, such as zip lining, horseback riding, rock climbing, archery, swimming and campfires.

Also at Touchstone Energy Camp, campers learned about important topics, such as alternative energy, electrical safety and the impact their cooperative makes in the community.  Activities are structured to teach valuable leadership skills that students can put to good use now and later in life.

Local students who attended were Joshua Schroeder, son of Danny and Sharon Schroeder from New Salisbury, and  MacKenzie Hill, daughter of Michael and Jessie Hill from Elizabeth.
