Youth Tour


High School Juniors
Every year, Haywood EMC sends two high school juniors on an all expense paid trip to Washington, DC for a week in early June. They travel from Raleigh with approximately 40 other juniors from across North Carolina and meet up with over 1,500 more in DC from all across the United States.
