Whether you’re a McAlester resident or driving in from other parts of KEC’s service area, this year’s meeting promises something for all ages.
Visit the KEC Kids Corner to give co-op kids a chance to learn about the life of a lineman and learn how to stay safe around electricity. Our youngest members will also have the opportunity to see a bucket truck up close at the Touch-a-Truck event, alongside the McAlester Fire Department and the Southeast Oklahoma Library System’s Bookmobile! And don’t forget, kids are also eligible for prizes!
Every registered member will receive a grab bag upon arrival and will have a chance to win our grand prize of a $600 bill credit! KEC will be giving away over 100 door prizes throughout the morning. Please remember that you must register and be present to be eligible for prizes, so please don’t leave early!
We hope that you and your family will attend KEC’s Annual Meeting, where Brett and Terri will be returning to provide entertainment, and our friendly employees will share how we are working to serve you. On behalf of myself, the Board of Trustees, and the staff, we are excited to welcome you to the 2024 Annual Meeting.
