Branson, Missouri –
White River Valley Electric Cooperative is once again extending the trip of a lifetime to area youth.
Marking 57 years, Missouri’s electric cooperatives will join other co-ops across the country in the Youth Tour to Washington, D.C. The annual campaign includes an all-expense paid trip to the nation’s capital June 19-25, 2020.
High school juniors from Douglas, Stone, Taney, Christian, and Ozark Counties are invited to participate in the Youth Tour contest. Qualified applicants will submit a written or video essay covering the topic:
“HOW WILL THE COOPERATIVE POWER YOUR FUTURE?”
Finalists from each participating school will then give an oral presentation and be chosen for one of three WRVEC sponsorships to represent the co-op in Washington, D.C.
Those interested can visit www.whiteriver.org for eligibility requirements, contest details, and entry.
