The Future is on our Lines

 

Your local electric cooperative understands the value of education and inspiration in our communities, especially among our youth. Choptank Electric participates in many engagement activities to connect with our future leaders. 

Through these events and tours, we teach electric and power line safety, about careers in the utility and broadband industries, how power gets to homes and businesses and provide hands-on interactions and demonstrations. Concern for Community and Education, Training and Information are two of the seven Cooperative Principles that we follow; both of which are modeled by our youth outreach efforts.
 
The future of our community and industry lies within the next generation, so we are investing resources to keep them prepared here on the Eastern Shore. 

Sincerely,

Mike Malandro, 
President and CEO

Choptank Electric Cooperative employees volunteered their time at the Perdue Henson Junior Achievement Center for a takeover day in March to lead Salisbury Middle School students through the JA Biztown program to learn about financial literacy and community economic development.
