For the museum lovers, you will visit the International Spy Museum, Holocaust Museum and the Smithsonian Museums. The itinerary is packed with something for everyone.
During Youth Tour, you also will learn about the rich political history of rural electric co-ops in our nation and visit the memorial to Franklin D. Roosevelt, the creator of the Rural Electrification Administration in 1935.
Students will learn about current issues facing rural America with their congressional representatives and visit the Capitol.
Are you ready for this amazing opportunity? You must be a high school junior and your parents, or guardians, must be Lane Electric members. Students can- not be immediate family members of an employee or director of Lane Electric. The deadline to apply is Thursday, January 23, by 1 p.m.
