CWF is a 4-H sponsored trip held annually that unites senior 4-H members from across the country in a comprehensive 5-day training and educational tour.
They start by attending leadership and civic engagement workshops followed by a networking social. A highlight of the trip was the visit to Capitol Hill where they were honored to speak with South Dakota Senator John Thune and tour the rotunda as well as the National Statuary Hall.
Other stops on the tour were the White House, Lincoln Memorial, an afternoon at Mount Vernon, Arlington National Cemetery, Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial, the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial, US Holocaust Memorial Museum, and the World War II Memorial just to name a few.
