Youth learn power tools for life

FORT VALLEY — Nine children worked with a team of horses to learn lifelong skills during The PEACH Pit’s Power Tools for Living camp.

No, not those power tools.

Respect. Responsibility. Choices and consequences. Relationship skills. Empathy. Boundaries.

Each day of the June camp focused on a different power tools, with the final day being a wrap-up of all the skills.

The camp was made possible by a State of Hope grant and a partnership with the Fort Valley Youth Center of Excellence, the camp’s host site.
