Summer is camp season for many people.  Whether it is a family vacation or any number of different camps for kids, it is a great time to enjoy doing something you enjoy or something fun and different.  

Most people are familiar with recreational camping, youth camps and sports camps but perhaps not everyone knows that the Nebraska Rural Electric Association hosts a Youth Energy Leadership Camp.  It is a week-long camp held at Camp Comeca near Cozad.  It offers high school students the opportunity to learn about our legislative process, electric power generation and the rural electric program.  The staff for the camp is made up of students who were campers in previous years as well as electric utility employees from around the state.  

The camp itself is a great experience and learning opportunity for those that attend.  But it is also just the  beginning of the process for some of the campers.  Every year, several of the kids are selected to attend the Washington DC Youth Tour the following summer.  The national Youth Tour brings together 1,700 students from over 40 states.  They have the chance to gain a further understanding of our democratic government, tour the sites important to our nation’s history and learn more about how the rural electric system contributes to our economy.  

Youth Energy Leadership Camp will be July 21-25 this year.  It is open to students who will be freshmen, sophomores, or juniors in high school the following fall and whose families are customers of NREA member systems, including Midwest.  For more information, contact our office or visit www.MidwestECC.com. 

What can Midwest do for you?
Midwest has rebates on many different items to promote buying energy efficient products.  Midwest – through our power supplier Tri-State – has rebates available on water heaters, heat pumps, commercial LED lighting, Energy Star® clothes dryers and cooktops, smart thermostats, whole house fans, outdoor power equipment, evaporative coolers, irrigation motors, variable speed drives and electric vehicle charging     equipment.

In a new program this year, Tri-State is offering to facilitate efficiency audits on irrigation wells.  A technician will audit the irrigation system and offer suggestions for how to improve the efficiency of the entire system.  Please contact our office for more information on any of these programs.
