Three area high school juniors will win all-expense paid trips to our nation’s capitol this summer as part of Farmers’ Electric Cooperative’s Youth Tour to Washington Essay Contest.
This marks the 41st consecutive year that FEC has sponsored the academic competition.
The essay contest is open to all high school juniors attending a high school that is located within the service area of Farmers’ Electric Cooperative. The contest is also open to a high school junior who resides in a home on FEC’s system and attends a high school outside the cooperative’s service territory where the essay contest is not offered at that high school.
The contest is not open to a student who attends a high school in FEC’s service territory, but resides on another cooperative’s lines that also conducts the essay contest to Washington, D.C. Children of cooperative employees and directors are not eligible to participate in the contest.
Junior class English instructors received the essay contest information and applications in early January. Applications may also be picked up at the cooperative office in Chillicothe or by calling the office and arranging for the application to be mailed. If there are any questions pertaining to the essay contest, please contact Steve Shoot at the cooperative office.
This year’s topic is “Why electricity will be the energy of choice in the future.”
The essay contest deadline is Friday, Feb. 27, 2004, at 4:30 p.m.
