Star Communications Offers Opportunity to Two Area High School Students

If you are the parent or guardian of a 2020-2021 rising high school sophomore, junior or senior, your child may be interested in the opportunity offered by North Carolina Cooperative Council and sponsored by Star Communications. This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity will be offered and presented to two deserving high school students from the Star Communications service territory. This offer is open to high achieving young men and women, but is limited to only two youth sponsored by Star Communications.

Each year for five days in June, the North Carolina Cooperative Council holds a camp at White Lake on the grounds of the North Carolina FFA Camp. The residential camp, filled with cooperative related fun activities is also an opportunity for your child to meet other young people from across North Carolina. This year’s North Carolina Cooperative Council Camp, scheduled June 15-19, 2020 promises to be the biggest and best camping experience ever offered by the council. In addition to the experience offered by the camp, each student who attends will have the opportunity to apply for the North Carolina Cooperative Council Scholarship Program available to camp participants during their senior year of high school.

For more information on the camp, please visit the Cooperative Council of North Carolina’s website at www.ccnc.coop.

For more information on how your rising sophomore, junior or senior can apply, please contact Tracey Page at tpage@stmc.net or call 564-7891.

Know What’s Below-Call Before You Dig

Time to “Spring Forward”On Sunday morning, March 8, 2020, at 2:00 a.m. we will “spring” forward one hour into Daylight Saving Time. So, before going to bed for the night on Saturday, March 8, be sure to set your clocks ahead one hour.

It’s a good idea to also get in the habit of checking your smoke detectors and alarms twice a year when you change your clocks. Check to make sure they are in good working order and make sure batteries are replaced. The few minutes it takes to check these devices may save your life or the life of someone you love.
