Leadership Focus of Indiana Youth Tour!
 
High school juniors have a chance to join other Indiana youth on a trip of a lifetime. Applications are now available for the 2012 Electric Cooperative Youth Tour to Washington, D.C. The trip begins on June 13 in Indianapolis and ends on June 21.
 
“Harrison REMC is pleased to be able to provide this opportunity for local students,” Cathy Racicot, Member Communications Coordinator said. “It’s a great trip and a wonderful chance to see the sights, make new friends and learn how everyone, even young people, can be a leader and make a difference in the world.”
 
The Indiana delegation will meet in Indianapolis on Wednesday, June 13 to get acquainted and hear from Indiana legislative leaders during a kick-off dinner featuring Senator Dan Coats and Indiana Speaker of the House Brian Bosma. Before departing heading east, students will visit the Hoosier Training Center in Franklin, Ind., where they will participate in hands-on learning sessions simulating an electric lineman’s job, observe a pole-top rescue, learn about electric safety during a live wire demonstration presented by Kankakee Valley REMC, and much more.
 
New for this year, students and chaperones will make a stop at the Flight 93 National Memorial in Shanksville, PA, on their way to Gettysburg where they will visit the battlefield and museum. The caravan will arrive in Washington, D.C. on Saturday afternoon to begin a full schedule of sight-seeing, visits to the National Memorials – including the new Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial – a collection of museums, such as the Newseum and the National Archives, plus a night cruise on the Potomac River and a trip back in history at Medieval Times® . Students will also have an opportunity to compete for a $1,000 scholarship and the Youth Leadership Council.
 
Over 1,500 students – representing 44 states – will participate in the “Youth Tour Rally” on Monday morning where they will share their thoughts and opinions on a variety of timely issues. This will prepare them for a busy Tuesday on Capitol Hill, when students visit with representatives of Indiana’s Congressional delegation. Leadership lessons will be intertwined with the itinerary throughout the week.
 
Indiana’s electric cooperatives have hosted the Youth Tour since 1960, providing hundreds of young Hoosiers the opportunity to visit our nation’s capital and learn about the federal government and the cooperative utility industry.  For more information about the 2011 Electric Cooperative Youth Tour to Washington, D.C., or to receive an application, contact Cathy Racicot at Harrison REMC at 812-738-4115 or 812-951-2323 or visit our website www.harrisonremc.com.  The deadline to submit the application is March 9, 2012.
