Every October, Steuben Rural Electric Cooperative, Inc. holds our annual meeting.  You as a member are invited to attend.  The annual meeting is a special time for co-op members to gather, share experiences, hear from co-op leadership and, perhaps most importantly, vote to elect your board members.  You will also have a chance to meet the Board of Directors and cooperative staff, and learn about Steuben Rural Electric's plans for the future.

Board members serve staggered three-year terms.  The three seats up for election in 2023 are District 3 (Urbana, Wayne, Bradford, Hornby, and Orange); District 4 (Bath); and District 6 (Thurston, Campbell, and Rathbone).  Look for more information about the Annual Meeting in the September issue of The Energizer.

Come early and enjoy fresh coffee, water, donuts, cheese, and crackers with comradeship with your fellow members. There will be no supervised child care available. Each member will receive a gift to celebrate the Cooperative's 79th annual meeting upon registration at the meeting.  One gift per membership.

Members attending the meeting will receive a $30.00 credit on their November billing statement.  Only one $30 credit per membership will be issued.  Please use the registration form included in the September issue of The Energizer to reserve your chicken barbeque dinners.  The reservation deadline to order chicken dinners is Friday, October 6, 2023.  We look forward to seeing everyone at the 2023 Annual Meeting.

SREC's Annual Meeting is one of the many benefits of being a member of an electric cooperative.  The meeting, held each year in October, offers members the opportunity to meet the Board of Directors, the general manager and the employees.  Members also elect membership and attend to any business that may come before the membership.  

Cooperative members can vote for directors in all districts.  

Proxy voting allows members to designate another member to vote in his or her place.  

Complete and sign the proxy form.  The person attending the annual meeting to vote for you must be a cooperative member and must have your proxy with them at the time they register at the annual meeting.  The member you give the proxy to may only hold one proxy vote.  To obtain a proxy form, contact us at (607) 776-4161, Monday through Friday 7:30-4:00 pm.
