Envirothons

Adams Electric is working with the Adams, Franklin, Cumberland and York County Conservation District coordinators to sponsor their annual Envirothons. The Envirothons are held in the spring months and involve hundreds of local school students. Adams Electric donates $500 toward the cost of t-shirts to be given to each Envirothon participant. The t-shirts handed out in 2008 were a first for the Adams, Franklin and Cumberland envirothons. All four districts now include the Adams Electric "Powering the Future" logo on the back of the shirt. Reneé Benner is coordinating these efforts for Adams Electric. She can be contacted at reneeb@adamsec.coop or (717) 334-9211.
