2022 Annual Meeting Highlights

Thursday | June 16, 2022
All News

The 27th Annual Meeting of the Members of East-Central Iowa REC was held virtually on June 16! The meeting was recorded—click here to listen to the proceedings.

A primary piece of the Annual Meeting is the Board election. This year, members could vote by mail-in ballot, or they could vote online through our website or SmartHub. Julie Kester (District 2), Brian McNulty (District 3), and Gary McKenna (District 4) were re-elected to serve another three-year term on the Board of Directors.

A Board reorganization meeting followed the election. Re-elected to office were Steve Rau, president; Jeff Elliott, vice president; Ryan Kress, secretary/treasurer; and Julie Kester, assistant secretary/treasurer.

This year’s theme—Powering Ahead for You—was fitting for ECI REC. We have always striven to utilize innovative and forward-thinking opportunities to achieve what is in the best interest of you, our membership.

Members who cast a ballot in this year’s election were entered to win one of twelve $50 bill credits and one of two $100 bill credits. Members who attended the virtual meeting were entered to win the other $100 bill credit. Winners were selected electronically and randomly.
