July 24 – MANILA – More than 700 people gathered recently for Rush Shelby Energy’s 2022 Annual Meeting.
The Annual Meeting is an opportunity for RushShelby Energy to give back to its members. This year’s gathering featured food, live entertainment and prize-winning opportunities.
This year’s entertainment was local bluegrass band Moon Cave Ramblers, and they did not disappoint.
Members enjoyed a meal from Chick-fil-A and soft serve ice cream from Thornburg Concessions.
Door prizes were awarded throughout the evening, with the grand prize being a Trager Timberline 1300 Wood Pellet Wi-Fi Grill and a $250 gift certificate from Spegal’s Prime Cuts.
Children were entertained throughout the evening with crafts, bounce houses and two Silly Safaris shows. In addition, the children had many opportunities to win their own prizes.
The evening concluded with a business meeting to elect directors in Districts 2, 5 and 8.
While Districts 2 and 8 were uncontested, District 5 featured a well-fought battle that resulted in the re-election of the incumbent, Fred Smith; 1,125 mail-in votes were received, 426 members voted online, and more than 120 votes were cast at the annual meeting.
An event of this size could not be successful without a lot of work. RushShelby Energy would like to thank all of its directors, employees and the many outside individuals and organizations who helped make this event a success.
As a cooperative, RushShelby Energy strives to be a member-centric provider. The annual meeting is one way the co-op can do that: say thank you.
RushShelby welcomes feedback on how they can improve the service. Please contact the office by phone, email or Facebook with any suggestions. — Information provided
