High school juniors are eligible for youth leadership training opportunities!

High school juniors whose parents or guardians are members of Western Cooperative Electric can take all-expenses-paid leadership trips to Washington, D.C., and Steamboat Springs, Colorado.

The top four students will have the opportunity to attend Youth Tour or Cooperative Youth Leadership Camp.

Contestants must complete the application by Jan. 10, 2025.

Upon receipt of the application, contestants will be mailed an entry packet.

Finalists are scored and selected based on a short essay, an open-book quiz, and a remote interview. The student with the top scores gets the first selection of trips.

Interviews will be conducted in mid-February.

Two students will have the opportunity to attend the Cooperative Youth Leadership Camp in Steamboat Spring, Colorado, and two students will win a tour of the nation’s capital, Washington, D.C.
