KEC Announces Leadership Opportunities for Eighth Graders, High School Juniors

Each year, KEC sends three high school juniors from its service area on an unforgettable, all-expenses-paid trip to Washington, D.C.

Students travel with the Oklahoma delegation (70+ students) to our nation’s capital where they tour historic sites and national landmarks, meet Oklahoma’s Congressional delegation and more. Youth Tour has earned a reputation as “a trip of a lifetime” by former participants. The trip will be held June 19-25, 2020.

To enter the Youth Tour contest, high school juniors are asked to write a letter to the elected official of their choice describing an issue that concerns them. Each contestant should submit their letter along with the application at www.kiamichielectric.org by 5 p.m., Friday, March 6, 2020.

Eighth graders are invited to apply for a fun, four-day trip to Energy Camp.

Set for May 26-29, 2020 at Canyon Camp and Conference Center near Hinton, OK, Energy Camp helps develop leadership skills and promotes teamwork while teaching about cooperative principles, rural electrification and electrical safety.

Applications can be found at www.kiamichielectric.org. Call (918) 465-2338 for more information.
