Mission and vision
As a cooperative, it is CREC's responsibility to serve our members today, and tomorrow. CREC's Board of Directors adopted both mission and vision statements to help continue guiding us as we move forward to fulfill that responsibility.

Annual Meeting
The annual meeting of members, according to bylaws, is to be held between May 1 and October 1 of each year, to elect directors, provide reports for the previous fiscal year, and transact such other business as may come before the meeting.
Cooperative members may vote for directors online or by paper ballot during a period before the annual meeting or may attend the annual meeting and vote in person.
The term "cooperative member" refers to a person, family, or business that purchases electricity from the cooperative. One member = one vote.
The annual meeting is also an opportunity for members to vote on any cooperative bylaw changes that are proposed by the board.
