This spring, up to six high school students, ages 16-17, will be sponsored by STRATA to attend the FRS Youth Tour to Washington, D.C.

While there, students will visit some of the most historical sites in the nation, attend meetings with members of congress, and visit with the Federal Communications Commission.

To be eligible to apply for the FRS Youth Tour, students must be ages 16 or 17 at the time of this year’s tour: June 1‑5, 2019.
