Iowa Youth Tour!       

Each year, Iowa’s local electric cooperatives offer the Iowa Rural Electric Youth Tour to Washington, D.C.  The 2027 Youth Tour trip is set for June 16-22, 2027. Highlights of the trip include touring historic sites, exploring the Smithsonian museums, meeting Iowa’s congressional leaders, spending a day on Capitol Hill and cruising down the Potomac River. Along the way, participants will make new friends, create lasting memories, and connect with hundreds of other Youth Tour students from across Iowa and the nation! SIEC will be taking applications for the 2027 Washington, D.C. trip from January 1 through February 28, 2027.  Any sophomore, junior or senior high school student in Southern Iowa Electric Cooperative's service territory is eligible to apply--PARENTS NEED NOT BE A MEMBER!  SIEC's service territory includes: Davis County and portions of Appanoose, Van Buren, and Wapello counties. Just fill out the application form to the right and return it to SIEC. We will then send you the information you’ll need to study for the interview, which will be held in March at our office (22458 Hwy 2, Bloomfield). One lucky student will be chosen to represent Southern Iowa Electric Cooperative!  
The entry deadline is February 28, 2027.
