At Lake Region Electric Cooperative, decision making is local. Our co-op policies and strategic imperatives are driven by the local directors who have been elected from and by their local peers. Your active involvement is important for a healthy and vibrant cooperative.
Our annual membership meeting takes place in April. In addition to our primary location for the annual meeting, we have been holding additional satellite locations to better cover our entire service territory. At each location there is a member meal, followed by a business meeting (satellite locations have a livestream) that summarizes the past year. Elections are held for directors. We depend on local governance by our board of directors elected from and by fellow members of the cooperative.
