Basketball camp scholarships available

Wake Electric is providing 2 all-expense paid scholarships for one deserving young woman to attend the Kellie Harper Basketball Camp in Raleigh and one young man to attend the Roy Williams Basketball Camp in Chapel Hill this summer. Both camps will work closely with each camper to develop fundamental skills that will help the young athletes excel both on and off the court. Students sponsored by Wake Electric must reside in the counties served by Wake Electric: Durham, Franklin, Granville, Johnston, Nash, Vance and Wake counties.

Rising sixth through eighth graders are eligible to apply. Eighth graders going into the 9th grade are NOT eligible to apply. The deadline to apply is March 31, 2010. Applicants will be judged on their academics, extra-curricular activities and accompanying essay. Students can download an application at www.ncelectriccooperatives.com.
The Kellie Harper Basketball Camp will be held June 20-23 on campus at NC State University and the Roy Williams Basketball Camp will be held June 19-23 at UNC.

The Touchstone Energy Sports Camps program provides a unique educational and athletic opportunity for outstanding students across our state and is yet another way the cooperatives are demonstrating their commitment to North Carolina communities.
