Throughout each year, REC participates in hundreds of events supporting local communities and organizations. From presentations in school classrooms to displays at fairs and street festivals to speaking at meetings and events, REC is there for you. Commitment to our communities is one of the seven cooperative principles, and in addition to supporting communities in their events, REC also has created opportunities for member-owners to connect with their Cooperative.

ANNUAL MEETING

As a member-owner of REC, you have a say in its leadership. The Annual Meeting is open to all member-owners of REC.

GET CONNECTED

REC hosts Get Connected, a member appreciation event, in a different part of its 22-county service territory each year. 

COMMUNITY EVENTS

From farmers markets to county fairs you can often see your cooperative in the community making an impact.
