SECO Energy Launches Youth Tour Program for Local High School Juniors
SECO Energy is excited to introduce a new Youth Tour program for local high school juniors. The program is designed to inspire youth who are passionate about the energy industry, history, leadership, and adventure.
This unique initiative offers up to ten local high school juniors – who live in a home served by SECO Energy – the chance to attend the Tallahassee Youth Tour, an overnight conference from February 12-13, 2025. Participates will explore the Florida State Capitol and Legislative Chambers while gaining insight into the legislative process and the Cooperative Business model. SECO Energy will cover the cost of transportation, meals and hotel accommodation.
But that’s not all! After the Tallahassee Youth Tour, these ten participants will have a second opportunity to compete for one of two exclusive spots to represent SECO Energy at a once-in-a-lifetime, sponsored trip to tour our Nation’s Capital as a 2025 Washington Youth Tour Delegates.
In June 2025, the two selected delegates will join more than 1,800 peers from across the country for a weeklong trip to Washington, D.C., where they will visit iconic landmarks like the U.S. Capitol, Arlington National Cemetery, and the Smithsonian Museums. They’ll also have the chance to meet elected officials, explore potential career paths, develop leadership skills, deepen their understanding of electric cooperatives, and build lasting friendships as they learn about our great nation and experience Washington like never before.
Whether students are interested in the energy industry, politics, history, or simply seeking an exciting adventure, the Youth Tour is a memorable experience that provides personal and professional growth.
Don’t let a high school junior miss out! The application period ends Friday, December 20, 2024. Help shape the leaders of tomorrow and encourage them to apply online today at SECOEnergy.com > Your Co-op > Youth Tour Application.
