Rayhan Nepal (pictured right), a student from Francis Howell North High School, was among the 110 high school students from across Missouri who participated in the Missouri Electric Cooperative
CYCLE (Cooperative Youth Conference and Leadership Experience) program.
The conference was held July 14-17 at the DoubleTree Hotel in Jefferson City. Cuivre River Electric Cooperative sponsored Nepal on the educational journey.
Each year, this action-filled four days provides high school students opportunities to learn what it is like to be involved in politics, the cooperative form of business, and being a leader. The program included nationally known speakers and time at the Missouri State Capitol learning how a bill goes through the process to become a law. To learn more about electric cooperatives, the group was divided up into teams that competed in various events such as the “build a cooperative” game.
