The Farmers Electric Cooperative 2021 Essay Contest for the Youth Tour and CYCLE programs is open to Sophomores and Juniors that live in the Cooperative service area.
Although the Washington, D.C. trip has been canceled, juniors from area high schools will still have the opportunity to win ALL-EXPENSE PAID eye-opening experience this summer and will be competing to win one of two spots for Youth Tour.
Three sophomores will win an opportunity to attend the Cooperative Youth Conference and Leadership Experience (C.Y.C.L.E.).
Whether these are a virtual or in-person experience, students will not want to miss out on either opportunity!
Students DO NOT have to be a Member of the Cooperative in order to participate. Sophomore and junior class English and History instructors received essay contest guidelines and entry forms by email or mail this year. Essay information may also be picked up at the FEC business office in Chillicothe or by going online to the Cooperative’s website at www.fec-co.com.
The essay topic for sophomores and juniors this year is:
“The year 2020 has tested us and brought many challenges our way. What has been your biggest personal challenge this past year, and how did you overcome it?”
The essay may range between 250-600 words in length, must be postmarked on or before the deadline of Friday, February 26, 2021, at 4:30 p.m. Winners of the essay contests will be notified in March
