Elementary students at Clopton have been staying busy during the summer school session sponsored by the Twin Pike Family YMCA. The program was awarded a $500 Operation Round Up grant to be used for partial scholarships to offset the enrollment fee for several students. The three-week summer session, which concludes June 15, features a number of activities such as swimming, fishing, crafts, games, presenters and clinics. Operation Round Up grant funds come from Cuivre River Electric Cooperative members who voluntarily pay the round up amount on their monthly electric bill. The funds are administered by volunteer trustees who represent areas within St. Charles, Lincoln, Warren and Pike counties where Cuivre River offers electric service. The program addresses unmet needs in the areas of community and emergency services, home weatherization, health, youth and education.
