iwash Electric Cooperative hosted a banquet on March 10 honoring its 2015 Youth Tour finalists and their families.


The banquet concluded with the final leg of the competition—a brief interview with a panel of judges who judged the teens on knowledge of rural electric cooperatives, speaking ability, poise, personality and appearance.


Shortly afterward, Lisa Willard, Kiwash Electric’s director of marketing, announced the co-op’s 2015 Youth Tour winners. Winners Jamie Deevers, Weatherford High School, and Tracie Diggs, Burns Flat Dill City High School, will travel to Washington DC June 12-18 as members of Oklahoma’s Youth Tour delegation.


Jami is the daughter of Barbie Deevers of Weatherford. Tracie is the daughter of Billy and Roberta Diggs of Foss.
