Each year, Lamar Electric Cooperative selects two exemplary high school students to attend the Government-in-Action Youth Tour. This is an all-expenses-paid tour of Washington, D.C., which includes visiting the U.S. Capitol and meeting members of Congress.
Each year, Lamar Electric awards academic scholarships to exemplary high school students who plan to pursue an academic degree or certification from an accredited university, college, junior college, technical school, or other post-secondary educational institution. Scholarship payments are made directly to the college, university, or school in one lump sum. Scholarships must be used within two years of the award date. Funds may be used for tuition, books, room and board.
