The co-op service territory is divided into seven districts. Each district is represented by one Director. In defining the district, the Board of Directors shall bear in mind the desirability of having the Directors well distributed over the cooperative area, the size of the district, and the number of Members in the district.

District meetings are held each May in areas where Directors’ terms are set to expire that year. These meetings give Members in those specific districts the opportunity to nominate candidates for election at the annual membership meeting, which takes place on the third Wednesday in July.

In accordance with Article III, Section 3.08 of the cooperative’s bylaws, a district meeting will be held in Districts 6 and 7 to take action upon the following matters:

1. For the purpose of selecting one or more persons as candidates for Director to represent the Members located within such district, and
2. Any other matters pertaining to the business of the Cooperative. 

An election will be held to nominate one or more persons as candidates for Director to represent the Members located within such district.

Each voting Member in attendance will receive a $10 bill credit. Drawing for door prizes will be held at the close of the meeting.
