Some Dadeville Elementary School students got to take a tour of something in our area that is small compared to its impact – Martin Dam.
The 46 students from the school’s After School Summer Camp and Boys and Girls Program took a tour Wednesday taking a look at how the dam holds back the 44,000 acres of water and generates electricity for Alabama Power.
