Annual Meeting

Join us for you Annual Meeting! 

San Patricio Electric Cooperative’s Annual Members Meeting will be held on Saturday, September 13th at the Bee County Exposition Center. 

Registration will open at 8 a.m. At that time, we invite you to visit our employee booths to learn all about your cooperative and the tools we use to serve you every day. 

Our business meeting will begin inside the auditorium at 9:30 a.m.

As a member of the co-op, the annual meeting provides an excellent way for you to exercise your ownership of the cooperative. It gives you the opportunity to speak with co-op employees and board members, to learn more about your cooperative and possibly leave with a great door prize.

During the meeting, the results of the board of director’s election will be announced. We encourage you to make your voice heard by casting a ballot in this election. Ballots will be mailed and emailed to all members on August 18. For your convenience, you can vote by mail or online.

The purposes of the meeting are to:

• Elect directors of the cooperative.

• Consider reports on the affairs of the cooperative

• Transact any other business, which may properly come before the meeting.

SPEC Director Election

We’re governed by seven local members, who serve rotating three-year terms on our board of directors. Because our board members live right here in our local area, they have a unique understanding of our local needs and guide the cooperative accordingly.

Each year, we hold an election for our board of directors, with each district up for election once every three years. All members are invited and encouraged to vote in this election. Ballots will be mailed and emailed to all members on August 18.

This year, SPEC has two director districts up for election: Districts 3 and 4. A nominee for a district director position must reside within the district for which a director is to be elected. (For example, to run for the District 3 seat you must reside within District 3.) Members in these districts are invited to run for a position on the board of directors.

Details about the election and nominating processes will mailed to our members in June. If you would like to serve on SPEC's Board of Directors or would like to suggest a nominee, please contact any member of the Nominating Committee before their meeting on July 8:
