In recent years, attendance at this event has steadily declined. We’ve also noticed that many of our members living in the Warren County area are choosing not to attend, which is understandable given the longer travel distance.

With these factors in mind, the board of your cooperative has decided to make certain changes for the 2026 Annual Meeting. The meeting is scheduled for Monday, May 18, 2026, at 5 p.m. at the cooperative’s Enfield office. This will be a business‑only meeting, but we still welcome attendance from members interested in hearing the yearly reports from the board and management. Light refreshments will be provided in place of a full meal. The meeting will be recorded and made available on the Halifax EMC website and Facebook page for anyone unable to attend in person.

As a locally owned cooperative, we value the ability to share
information and connect with our members. Therefore, we will be hosting district meetings later in the year across the service territory. These meetings will allow us to have more in depth conversations with you about important matters related to the cooperative. By offering
multiple sessions in different locations, we hope to make participation more convenient for a greater number of our members.

During these district meetings, staff will discuss current projects and future plans that impact the cooperative and community. Members will also have the opportunity to ask staff questions, speak with their local Halifax EMC director representatives, and learn more about the programs and services available through Halifax EMC. Informational tables will be staffed by Halifax EMC employees who are ready to assist you one‑on‑one. Each attending member will receive a $10 electric service credit, and a small number of door prizes will be awarded.

Our goal with these changes is simple: to create more meaningful and accessible opportunities for members to connect with their cooperative. Please look for additional details about the district meetings in the newsletter and on Facebook in the coming months. We hope you will consider attending one of these district meetings and engaging with us.
