Each year, Iowa’s local electric cooperatives offer the Iowa Rural Electric Youth Tour to Washington, D.C. The 2026 Youth Tour trip is set for June 14-20, 2026. Highlights of the trip include touring historic sites, exploring the Smithsonian museums, meeting Iowa’s congressional leaders, spending a day on Capitol Hill and much more! Students will make new friends from across the nation, as they join hundreds of other Youth Tour participants.
SIEC will be taking applications for the 2026 Youth Tour trip from January 1 - February 28, 2026. 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!
