MONTGOMERY YOUTH TOUR

WHAT DID THE DELEGATES SAY ABOUT YOUTH TOUR?

CAROLINE BREAUX, CLARKE PREP

“To me, being a leader is taking charge and organizing this well. You have to be kind and helpful to be a good leader. My favorite part about Youth Tour was meeting new people and making friends. I also really enjoyed exploring the city and learning about the history of Montgomery and Alabama. To those interested in Youth Tour, ABSOLUTELY DO IT!”

NOUR JABNOUNI, WASHINGTON COUNTY

“The Montgomery Youth Tour impacted me in many ways. Not only did it grow my appreciation for my co-op, for Mrs. Sarah Turner and everything she does, the three amazing judges that selected me for this honor, and for everyone involved in the process of the Tour, it also humbled me, reminded me of God’s grace, love, and faithfulness, allowed me to meet wonderful people, and it allowed me to learn so much about my state and how to be a better leader. The Montgomery Youth Tour has left me with memories and has reminded me of lessons that will last me a lifetime.

SANAA THOMAS, MCINTOSH

“Being a leader to is empower others. Empower and motivate them to do better, to be teachable and let others know they can do anything they put their minds to. My favorite part of Youth Tour was meeting new people, Cea, and the tours. To those who are interested in applying for Youth Tour, go ahead and start getting educated on electric cooperatives now to be ahead of the game and just be your authentic self. That’s what it is all about.”

MAYA TOOMEY, MILLRY

“Youth Tour impacted me in so many different ways. I learned more about co-ops, being a better leader, and how to be bold. I learned more about our state’s history and how government works. During the trip, we had an activity called kindness cards. You were given a card and then wrote kind words and gave them to whoever impacted you. It was so amazing being able to tell people things you might not normally say on a day to day basis. I received so many kind words, and I learned that I had impacted others just as much as they impacted me.”
