CREC Youth Tour
In 2026, Chandler High School student Rhett Haley was selected as an Oklahoma Youth Tour delegate and scholarship winner.
Youth Tour is a two-part competition open to high school JUNIORS where students participate by developing a résumé and submitting an application. The top contestants will be invited to interview on a Zoom call in front of a panel of judges.
The overall top two winners will win a $1,000 scholarship and a one-week, all-expense-paid trip to Washington, D.C. with other Youth Tour winners from electric cooperatives across the nation, held in June each year. Winners will meet members of Congress, and visit monuments, historical sights and Smithsonian museums.
