Nominating Committee

The Nominating Committee of White River Valley Electric Cooperative met at WRVEC headquarters at 10:30 A.M. on June 15, 2023. Each candidate’s qualifications to serve as Board of Director were vetted by the Nominating Committee in accord with the Cooperative’s bylaws. Candidates provided answers to a series of questions for the Committee to evaluate the knowledge and experience that could be brought to the boardroom to benefit the Cooperative membership.
