Take a trip to PowerTown – Electrical Safety Demonstration

In many ways, PowerTown is like your own town. Cars travel the roadways; people work in their yards; children play. Everything runs smoothly.

However, life can get very dangerous when you consider that the residents of PowerTown are very careless about electricity.

What is PowerTown?

Created with safety in mind, PowerTown simulates the many ways people can be injured by being careless around electricity. Using a variety of different scenarios, the demonstration teaches children (and adults) about the path of electricity and how to stay out of that path.

  • PowerTown is an electrical safety program for fourth graders; however, we can adjust the material for any age group including adults.
  • PowerTown uses a model to demonstrate real-life scenarios involving electricity and explain how to stay safe in these situations.
  • PowerTown is free and can be arranged to come to your classroom or organization event.
  • We will bring everything we need to engage the class in an active demonstration of electrical safety. All you need to provide is an electrical outlet.
  • The program typically lasts 30–45 minutes, depending on questions.

If you are interested in a PowerTown demonstration contact us via the form or call the office at 800-794-1989 and ask for Sarah. We'll get back to you shortly! 

We Can Come To You!

Electricity is all around us and is one of the most abundant forms of energy. Taking it for granted, however, could lead to serious injury or death.

FreeState has a comprehensive safety demonstration program to help you become more knowledgeable about electricity. The demonstration is suitable for all ages and organizations in our service territory.

For more information, please contact us using the form below and we will get back to you to set up a demonstration.
