YOUTH SAFETY PROGRAMS

When it comes to electrical safety, we believe education should start early. That’s why we offer several safety programs aimed at younger audiences. If you would like more information about our youth safety programs, please call 479-684-4689.

"Making Accidents Disappear"

Making Accidents Disappear is an educational and entertaining program that teaches children across America the importance of electrical safety. The 40-minute school assembly program, sponsored by several electric cooperatives nationwide, uses audience participation, comedy, stories, and magic to communicate the importance of behaving safely around electricity.

Making Accidents Disappear has been written and produced by magician Scott Davis. Davis has customized his award winning magic for numerous corporations to teach their company executives, sales staff, and customers about their product line and product benefits.
