About this listen

In this episode of SMECO Connects, Tom Dennison and Natalie Cotton sit down with Evelyn McCauley, a rising senior who just returned from the NRECA Youth Tour. Evelyn shares her surprising nomination story, the friendships she formed, and the unforgettable moment of asking tough questions to elected officials in Washington, D.C.

Along the way, you’ll hear:

  • How a guidance office summons turned into a life-changing opportunity
  • The hilarious chaos of a river cruise dance gone wrong
  • Why civic engagement—and a willingness to step outside your comfort zone—matters more than ever

Evelyn’s journey is a reminder that leadership begins with saying “yes” to unexpected opportunities.
