Youth
Tour is many (MANY!!) things including an opportunity to see all kinds of sites
in DC, a chance to meet with our elected
officials, occasions for students to network with others from all over the
country and the ability to walk away with a greater understanding of our role as an
American citizen.
Did
you know that Iowa Youth Tour offers students the chance to be hands on when it
comes to running a cooperative? Iowa Youth Tour forms and runs our very own
cooperative, which will provide drinks (other than water – H20 is readily
available and free for the students!) and snacks for our Youth Tour
participants. This project is educational and practical and accomplishes two
things. First, it provides drinks/snacks at discount prices (everything in
Washington is so expensive) and it teaches everyone about starting and
operating a cooperative and being a co-op “member owner.”
If you are one of the fortunate ones going on this year’s trip, get involved in YOUR cooperative! Watching from afar? Check out our social media platforms and follow us!
