A co-op store is also organized by senior youth to instill a better understanding of cooperatives. Senior camps fill very quickly and attendance is limited. Youth are taken on a first-come, first served basis. Current Farmers Union family membership is also a requirement to attend senior camps. The 6th Grade Award Trip is for junior youth who have completed three years of junior youth work and who have attended at least one junior youth camp prior to the summer of their 6th grade.
All eligible youth receive letters of invitation.
After a senior youth completes three years of senior youth work, they are eligible to participate in the Third Year Award Tour. This tour is designed to be a fun, educational trip and will include stops at Valley Fair Amusement Park, Cenex Harvest States Headquarters, Cenex Harvest States Grain Terminal, the Mall of America and other points of interest. All eligible youth receive letters of invitation. National Farmers Union conducts the All-States Camp at its Education Center near Bailey, Colorado. Transportation is provided.
