Make Your Mark: Apply Now for Arkansas Youth Tour
Each summer, a select group of Arkansas high school juniors trades their textbooks for a front-row seat to history.
Rich Mountain Electric is looking for outstanding students to join the Electric Cooperatives of Arkansas Youth Tour, an all-expenses-paid, week-long leadership experience in our nation’s capital.
From June 13-19, delegates will join more than 1,800 students from across America for a life-changing journey.
This isn’t just a sightseeing trip; it is an opportunity for young leaders to discover their voices, develop leadership skills and begin shaping the legacy they will leave behind.
- Meet your leaders: Tour the U.S. Capitol and engage with Arkansas’ Congressional delegation.
- Explore world-class museums: Visit the Smithsonian Institution and the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum.
- Walk through history: Pay respects at Arlington National Cemetery and visit historic sites like Mount Vernon and the Lincoln Memorial.
- Build lasting bonds: Develop lifelong friendships with peers from across the state and the country. Beyond the experiences in D.C., students selected for the program will have the chance to earn a $5,000 scholarship
