Washington Youth Tour

The Washington Youth Tour is an all-expenses-paid trip to the nation's capital, where seven (7) high school juniors from Blue Grass Energy's service area will meet students from throughout Kentucky and the United States.

You'll spend one week, June 19-25, 2020, touring the U.S. Capitol, the Smithsonian Institute, Arlington National Cemetery, the White House and numerous memorials and monuments.

You'll meet with Kentucky's national representatives in Congress and learn about electric cooperatives' roll in national government.

It all begins in Frankfort on Tuesday, March 17, 2020. You'll spend a day in Kentucky's capital, learning about state government, touring state offices and meeting with elected officials.

Don't miss the opportunity of a lifetime - apply now!
