LA GRANGE – Imagine this: You and over 150 teens from rural Texas gather in Austin before fly ing to Washington, D.C., for an un- forgettable week filled with adven ture and inspiration. You'll meet congressional leaders, explore national monuments and historic landmarks, tour the Smithsonian museums, enjoy a boat cruise on the Potomac River, and rally with over 1,900 other students to hear inspiring leadership speakers—all without spending a single dime.
If this sounds like an experience you can’t pass up, now’s your chance. Fayette Electric Cooperative is accepting applications for the 2025 Government-in-Action Youth Tour, happening June 15– 22. The Youth Tour is a prestigious leadership program sponsored by Fayette Electric Cooperative, collaborating with Texas Electric Cooperatives and the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association.
For over 50 years, electric cooperatives have been sending high school students on this all-expenses- paid, action-packed journey to the nation’s capital. Every year, participants return with stories of what they describe as the trip of a lifetime. For your opportunity to join Youth Tour, apply now through Fayette EC’s contest.
