Each year, South Alabama Electric Cooperative (SAEC) selects 10 high school juniors from the cooperative's service area to attend the Alabama Electric Cooperative Youth Tour in Montgomery. Students will receive a free trip to the state Capitol, where they will meet other students from across the state, visit historic sites, and participate in leadership and team-building activities for an immersive and enriching experience.
2 of the SAEC delegates will also be selected to attend the National Rural Electric Cooperative Youth Tour in Washington, D.C.
Interested? Great! Here's What To Do:
- Pick up an application from your school's guidance counselor or download it from SAEC website.
