Wake Electric 2011 Annual Meeting

Join Wake Electric next year on Friday, March 25 for the 2011 Annual Meeting at the Louisburg College Auditorium in Louisburg, NC. Members will

• have the opportunity to hear reports on the current plans and progress of Wake Electric and
• have the chance to ask questions about your co-op.
• There will be special activities for school-aged children during the meeting.
• Members in attendance will be entered into a drawing for $5,000 in cash prizes. The Grand Prize will be $1,000, 2 second-place prizes of $500 each, 4 third-place prizes of $250 and 20 fourth-place prizes of $100 each.
• Members in attendance also will receive a free gift bag from Wake Electric (one gift bag per household) and other freebies from our participating vendors.
• In March, your edition of Carolina Country will feature a special cover wrap. On that cover you will find an Official Registration Card with your member number on it. Bring this card to the meeting to enter the prize drawing.

NOTE: Wake Electric has a policy that if we draw the registration card 1) of a church, business or civic organization, or 2) of an employee of Wake Electric who is also a member, then Wake Electric will grant that member a cash prize, but will draw again until a non-employee, residential account is drawn. When this occurs, more cash prizes are awarded than the number of cash prizes originally advertised. The winners falling into that category this year are: Michael Creek Baptist Church, Stovall, $100; Pettiford Grove Baptist Church, Oxford, $100; and Kathy Langston, Louisburg, $100.
