Students Headed To Washington On EREC Youth Tour

Allie Bryan from Northview High School and Leely Trevino from Jay High School have been named winners in the Escambia River Electric Cooperative 2010 Youth Tour to Washington contest.

Students from the EREC service area interviewed with a panel of judges in this competition for a chance to win the opportunity to visit Washington.

Judges from PowerSouth Energy Cooperative in Andalusia, Alabama, and Southern Pine Electric Cooperative in Brewton, Alabama, scored contestants in their interviews based on their knowledge of Escambia River Electric Cooperative and the history of rural electrification. Personal attributes of each candidate such as character, academic ability, personality and leadership abilities were also considered.

Bryan and Trevino were chosen to represent EREC on the Washington Youth Tour. While in Washington, the teens will have the opportunity to see the sights, learn about our nation’s capitol, rural electrification and make new friends from across the country.

“EREC is very proud to have these two outstanding students represent them on the Washington Youth Tour this year. Congratulations to each of them on achieving this honor,” said Sabrina Owens, EREC spokesperson.
