Each year Comanche Electric Cooperative sponsors up to two students on the Government in Action Youth Tour trip to Washington D.C. The seven-day tour includes visits to the National Cathedral, Lincoln Memorial, Mount Vernon, and the Smithsonian Museum, as well as a host of other national sites. The students also have the opportunity to have downtime and fun in the form of dinners at such places as The Hard Rock Cafe, shopping at Union Center, dances, etc.

The contest is open to any student, sophomore and above, who attends a school or is homeschooled where Comanche Electric Cooperative has facilities. Qualifying schools are Albany, Blanket, Breckenridge, Cisco, Comanche, Cross Plains, De Leon, Early, Eastland, Goldthwaite, Gorman, Gustine, May, Moran, Mullin, Priddy, Ranger, Rising Star, Sidney, and Zephyr.
