The Annual Meeting of the members of the Carroll White Rural Electric Membership Corporation was held at the White County Fairgrounds in Reynolds, Indiana, on Friday evening, June 21, 2024, at 7:04 p.m. EST, pursuant to notice mailed to all members of the Cooperative more than 10 days prior to the said 21st day of June 2024.

President Kent P. Zimpfer presided at the business meeting, and Secretary Ralph H. Zarse acted as secretary of the meeting and kept the minutes.

Zimpfer called the meeting to order.

Following the singing of the Star-Spangled Banner by Taylor Burns, the invocation was given by Levi Messer.

Zimpfer welcomed the members to the meeting and introduced special guests in the audience and the board of directors.

At Zimpfers request, Zarse then read the Certificate Specifying Number of Members, the Notice of the Meeting, and the Proof of Giving Notice attached hereto and made the minutes of this meeting a part of it.

Upon proper motion duly made, seconded, and carried, the reading of the minutes from the Carroll White REMC Annual Meeting of the members held June 23, 2023, was dispensed.

As there were no corrections to the minutes, the minutes from the Carroll White REMC Annual Meeting of the members held June 23, 2023, were approved by general consent, with no objections.

Zimpfer introduced CEO Cathy Raderstorf, who gave the CEO address. Then, Zimpfer delivered the president address.

Zimpfer introduced Attorney Patrick Manahan, partner in the law firm of Emerson Manahan, to conduct the election of directors for two board districts. Manahan then asked Zarse if there was a quorum, and he replied that a quorum was present. Manahan reported that ballots cast by the membership duly elected the two unopposed directors: Aaron N. Anderson, District 1, and Gary E. Gerlach, District 6.

Zimpfer, with no further business, asked for a motion to adjourn. A motion was made, seconded, and approved by the members. The meeting adjourned at 7:31 p.m.

After adjourning the business meeting, Raderstorf presented donations to our CoBank Sharing Success Program recipients. Co-Bank and Carroll White REMC each provided $10,000 in donations to the community. The Monticello City Park Pool received a $12,000 donation to assist with the purchase of a vortex swimming pool slide. The Family Health Clinic Outreach Team in Carroll and White Counties received an $8,000 donation to assist in purchasing supplies for a mobile outreach trailer to distribute to community residents in need.

Asher Wilson, chair of the Junior Board of Directors, was introduced and reported on the Junior Board. Proceeds earned by the Junior Board from their community service projects were awarded to three organizations selected by Junior Board members in the Carroll White REMC service territory.

Raderstorf and Communications and Public Relations Manager Casey Crabb presented Certificates of Recognition to the outgoing Junior Board members for their service. Then, Crabb awarded the 2024 Carroll White REMC Scholarships and drew names for door prizes.
