ixty-eight students have been selected to represent Oklahoma’s electric cooperatives in this year’s Youth Tour to Washington, D.C. They will join more than 1,500 other students from co-ops across the nation to tour national landmarks, meet with their congressional representatives, and learn what it means to be a good citizen. Since 1964, Oklahoma electric cooperatives have proudly taken a total of 2,588 Oklahoma youth (includes 2012 winners) on this annual, weeklong, all-expenses-paid trip. Youth Tour is one of many programs that Oklahoma’s rural electric cooperatives invest in every year to help our state’s rural communities. Partici- pants, who are students between their junior and senior years of high school, are selected through an application and interview process during which judges look for excellent academic achievement and community leadership. The trip is intended to educate students about the role of electric co-ops in the national economy, to foster their appreciation for a democratic government, expose them to the sights and sounds of our nation’s heritage, and build their leadership skills so they may make a difference in their communities.
