Each July, Fairfield Electric Cooperative sends four rising high school juniors to the Cooperative Youth Summit in Columbia. Students experience our capital city by touring the State House, meeting lawmakers and seeing how co-ops are preparing for SC's energy future.
The trip is all-expenses-paid by Fairfield Electric. The next Cooperative Youth Summit will be held July 13-16, 2026, and the application is now available. Please note: Applications and all required materials are due online by Friday, February 27, 2026.
For additional information, please contact Stephanie Martin by phone at (803) 691-3636 or via email at smartin@fairfield.coop.
