Annual Meeting Approaches
As we approach our annual meeting in April, I’m excited to reflect on the success we achieved together at last year’s meeting.
Thanks to your active participation, last year we set a new record with 702 votes—absentee ballots and in-person voting.
Your commitment to shaping the future of your cooperative is truly commendable, and I am optimistic that we can build on this momentum for an impactful annual meeting this year. Our collective efforts have steered us to remarkable accomplishments, and your voice is a vital part of our continued success.
Last year, the members voted to have a longer period to vote by absentee ballot. This year, the option to vote by absentee ballot starts April 1 and is available through April 26. This allows you the flexibility to participate in the voting process at your convenience.
Whether you choose to cast your vote in person or remotely, your input is invaluable.
The annual meeting is on Saturday, April 27, at Ernest Ward Middle School in Escambia County. It promises to be a celebration of our shared achievements.
This year’s guest speaker is Matt Diamond, vice president of member services and communications at PowerSouth Energy Cooperative. Matt will share the exciting things happening at PowerSouth and how they affect Escambia River Electric Cooperative.
We are also planning exciting door prizes and engaging activities for our members, making this event not only important but enjoyable.
Let’s aim higher and set a record for participation this year.
Your vote is a testament to the strength of our community. Together, we can shape the future of Escambia River Electric.
