Co-ops send 4-H kids to “Run With the Pack” Sept. 17

North Carolina’s Touchstone Energy cooperatives are giving 4-H kids a chance to “Run With the Pack” at an N.C. State football game.

Twelve 4-H youth are expected to take the field with Wolfpack mascots Mr. and Mrs. Wuf at the opening of the Sept. 17 game against South Alabama. North Carolina’s Touchstone Energy cooperatives will sponsor the game on Military Appreciation Day and provide tickets to the kids and their families.

The cooperatives worked with the 4-H program “North Carolina: Operation Military Kids” to select the lucky runners, who are active in 4-H and have at least one parent in the U.S. military. The game will take place just days after the 10th anniversary of the Sept. 11 attacks.
