The idea of running for a spot on our board of directors may seem daunting, but is a great way to serve your community, impart knowledge and enact change.

You may think, “I don’t know anything about electricity. How can I lead a co-op?”

We’re looking for passion and perspective — not electrical expertise. We can teach you all about power generation, transmission and distribution. We need you to be a voice for your fellow members.

WHO CAN RUN FOR THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS?

Three districts are up for election this year, including:

District 3: This district includes Wayne Township in Noble County and part of Milford Township in LaGrange County.

District 6: This district covers Jefferson and Albion townships in Noble County.

District 7: This district encompasses Allen and Swan townships in Noble County.

I WANT TO RUN FOR ELECTION. WHERE DO I START?

Those residing in the districts up for election, and who are in good standing with the cooperative, are encouraged to call our office to schedule a time to pick up a petition for election, as well as other board information.

Completed petitions and biographical information must be returned to the cooperative no later than March 20 and include the signatures of 15 Noble REMC members supporting the candidacy.
