Each year Pee Dee Electric Cooperative sponsors rising high school seniors to attend a weeklong, all expenses paid trip to the nation’s capital.  This year Pee Dee Electric sponsored Kendall Chapman, Alexandria Parnell and Ranesha Stuckey.   Kendall attends Mayo High School for Math, Science & Technology.  She is the daughter of Ann and Dean Chapman.  Alexandria attends West Florence High School.  She is the daughter of Lisa Turbeville and Raymond Parnell.  Ranesha attends Johnsonville High School and is the daughter of Roger and Lori Stuckey.

These students toured Washington, attended NRECA’s Youth Day along with 47 other states and visited with their legislators at the Capitol.   When asked their thoughts on the trip, all three agreed it was “the experience of a life-time.” 

The Washington Youth Tour is a part of Pee Dee Electric’s educational support program and our commitment to the community.
