SCI REMC participates in the Indiana Rural Electric Youth Tour to Washington, D.C., which allows local teenagers to visit our nation's capital and learn about the government and electric cooperatives. While in Washington, Youth Tour delegates visit landmarks such as Arlington National Cemetery, Capitol Hill, the U.S. Supreme Court, Lincoln, Jefferson and Vietnam memorials, and several museums. On Capitol Hill, Indiana's delegation will visit with their local Congressman and take a tour of the Capitol Building that includes a visit to the U.S. House of Representatives Gallery.

This all-expense-paid experience is geared to high school juniors (who will be seniors the school year following the tour) and available to SCI REMC members whose teen would meet the requirements. The 2013 tour takes place June 12-20. The 2013 application and qualifications are now available. Deadline is February 15, 2013.
