Rich Mountain Electric Delegates Attend Youth Tour
Eli Swall, Lilly Hogg, Carlee Mounts, Kalee Mounts, Savanna White and Lauren Cruz represented Rich Mountain Electric Cooperative at Youth Tour, an all-expenses-paid educational trip to Philadelphia and Washington, D.C., from June 14-20. They were six of the 47 students representing Arkansas on Youth Tour.
Eli is the son of Steve and Stacy Swall; Lilly is the daughter of Andy and Adriana Hogg; Carlee and Kalee are the daughters of Jeffrey and Cassi Mounts; Savanna is the daughter of Tomesha and Michael White; and Lauren is the daughter of Santos and Kari Cruz.
Youth Tour is filled with fun activities, but its overall purpose is to increase students’ understanding of the value of rural electrification. Additionally, the students got the chance to visit monuments, historic sites and meet elected officials to increase the students’ knowledge of how the federal government works.
