Co-op sponsored students tour nation’s capital

Mary Martin of Clinton, and Ty Parker of Dennard, were among 40 Arkansas high school students who toured Washington, D.C., in June as part of the Electric Cooperative Youth Tour to Washington.

As part of the tour, Martin and Parker, and the rest of the Arkansas group, flew to Washington on June 9 and returned to Little Rock on June 14. The trip, sponsored by Petit Jean Electric Cooperative and the state’s 16 other electric distribution co-ops, included tours of major sites in Washington such as the U.S. Capitol, the museums of the Smithsonian Institution, Mount Vernon, and the Jefferson, Lincoln, Martin Luther King Jr., Vietnam, Korean and World War II memorials, among other sites.
