A local teenager will experience firsthand the pride of being an American by winning a free trip to Washington, D.C. June 16-21, 2025. Federated Rural Electric, Jackson, will select the winner of this trip through its annual Youth Tour Contest.
High school freshmen, sophomores, juniors and seniors, attending a high school in Federated’s service area can enter. Pick up an application from the school counselor or contact Federated (info@federatedrea.coop or call 1-800-321-3520). The application and information are also found on Federated’s website (www.federatedrea.coop). The student writes a 300-word essay on an energy-related topic, which is due with the application by Feb. 3. The first 10 students to enter will also earn $50.
Five finalists are selected for short interviews March 17, starting at 4 p.m. The combined scores from the essay, interview and application determine the trip winner, along with second and third place who receive $300 and $200, respectively.
The winner will travel with 40 other Minnesota teens sponsored by other rural electric co-ops. Federated’s delegate is one of 1,900 delegates nationally.
