2012 Annual Meeting Set for June 9
Because you purchase power from Fall River Electric Cooperative, you are an owner of the Cooperative, or a "member" as we prefer to call you and each year the Cooperative conducts its Annual Meeting, a free event when ALL members of the Co-op are invited to attend. The 2012 Annual Meeting will be held on Saturday, June 9 from 8am to Noon at the Cooperative's headquarters in Ashton, Idaho.
Board Election
Fall River Electric Cooperative is a democratic organization controlled by its members, who actively participate in setting its policies and making decisions. Members serve as elected representatives on our Board of Directors and are accountable to the membership. At this year's Annual Meeting, three Board of Director seats are open for election from the nine districts. All members are eligible to vote no matter what district you reside in. Here is a list of the candidates:
Dan Skene (incumbent) for District 1 (Rexburg, Rigby & Ririe).
Sonja Cherry (incumbent) for District 6 (Ashton)
There are 5 candidates vying for the Board seat for District 5 (west of Driggs, Tetonia & Felt)
- Robert "Bob" Fitzgerald
- Gloria Hoopes
- Rex Jardine
- Brent Robson
- Elaine Smith
A profile of each candidate is inside the Annual Meeting notice which was mailed to all members on May 18, 2012. Absentee ballots and proxy forms are available at each Fall River Electric office.
