Three high school juniors represented Singing River Electric Power Association at the Electric Power Associations of Mississippi Youth Leadership Workshop in Jackson on March 7-9. The students also will participate in the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association's Youth Leadership Conference in Washington this summer.
Candidates were required to have a 3.0 grade average and reside in Singing River Electric's service area to apply for the program. After being selected by their school, the students participated in interviews. Hayley Barnes of St. Martin High School, Cord Fallon of George County High School and Glenn Wells Jr. of East Central High School were chosen as Singing River Electric's representatives for the program.
While visiting Jackson, the young leaders spent time learning about electric cooperatives, participating in leadership workshops and meeting state legislators.
