Cindy Jensen to represent Brown County REA on 2024 Youth Tour
Cindy Jensen of rural Comfrey will represent Brown County REA at the 2024 Rural Electric Youth Tour to Washington, D. C., June 18-23.
Cindy will travel with approximately 40 students representing other Minnesota electric cooperatives on the all-expense-paid trip to the nation’s capital. While there, she will participate in leadership training, engage in one-on-one conversations with elected officials, and tour museums, monuments and memorials in Washington, D.C.
The Minnesota delegation will join youth representing electric cooperatives from across the United States during the 58th anniversary Youth Tour. Participants gain a first-hand understanding of the legislative process, learn about advocating on behalf of their community and make connections with others that will last a lifetime.
Cindy is a junior at Comfrey High School. She is the daughter of David and Kelli Jensen.
Fellow Comfrey High School junior, Joe Nachreiner, was awarded second place and a $150 check. Adam Mages, a sophomore at New Ulm Public School received the third-place prize of $100.
