SVEC In the Community

May 2024

Annual Meeting

More than 800 people attended SVEC’s 2024 Annual Meeting, where Jackson Lord, Tyler Putnal and Andy Walker were installed as trustees for their districts. The 627 registered consumer-members who attended heard General Manager Mike McWaters provide an update on the cooperative’s status. Dan Hartley, a field representative for U.S. Rep. Kat Cammack, and Ella Hancock, an attendee of the Tallahassee and Washington, D.C., youth tours, also spoke.

SVEC also gave away 100 door prizes and over 120 bingo prizes. It is always a pleasure to meet with our consumer-members and discuss the future of our cooperative in person. Thank you to everyone who attended.

Egg-Citing Science

SVEC was excited to join Suwannee Pineview Elementary’s egg drop. The popular event lets students take a crack at creating a protective carrier that can keep a raw egg from breaking when dropped about 55 feet from a raised bucket truck.

This was the 30th year SVEC participated in the event. It was great to see the successes, egg-splosions and, best of all, young minds having fun while learning.
