Applications are now closed for Youth Tour 2025! Keep an eye out for more details on how to apply for Youth Tour 2026! Winners will travel to Austin to begin the journey to Washington, D.C. A little Texas history will be a taste of what awaits the students as they depart for Washington D.C. to join the other 1,500 students from across the United States.
Current freshmen, sophomores and juniors from the TVEC service area are eligible to enter the Youth Tour to Washington, D.C. contest and win an all-expenses-paid trip to Washington, D.C. Highlights include a visit to congressional offices, tours of historic monuments, memorials and the Smithsonian Institute. The tour group will travel to Arlington National Cemetery, Washington National Cathedral, the Supreme Court, and to the Library of Congress, as well as other special attractions.
In addition to taking in the sights and sounds around the nation’s capital, all of the state groups will convene for Rural Electric Youth Day and an evening of dinner and dancing.
