Each year, Tri-County EMC selects a student to attend the Georgia Cooperative Council's Youth Leadership Conference, a five-day camp held each July at the FFA Camp in Covington. Participants develop leadership skills while learning about the role of cooperatives. Tri-County EMC covers all conference costs for participating youth. (29242001)
Through teambuilding exercises, personality assessments and an in-depth look into cooperatives, the conference provides leadership training for participants, explores the cooperative way of doing business and heightens awareness of cooperatives in Georgia. Attendees will have the chance to visit a dairy co-op, agricultural co-op and an electric co-op. Participants will also be able to enjoy camp activities, including a high ropes, mud obstacle course and more.
Applications are due May 1. For more information, visit tri-countyemc.com/youthleadershipcamp.cms.
