Student leaders journey to Alabama Capitol for 2023 Youth Tour

Pioneer Electric was proud to sponsor four high school juniors at the 2023 Montgomery Youth Tour in March.

Delegates were selected through an application and interview process to join peers from around the state to visit historic landmarks, participate in leadership activities and meet elected officials.

Pioneer Electric’s 2023 delegates were: Alli Butts, of Fort Dale Academy; Hope Holladay, of John T. Morgan Academy; Lelia Kelly, of John T. Morgan Academy; and Jayden McMillian, of McKenzie High School.
