More than 400 registered members filled Walsenburg Jr. Sr. High School with hugs, handshakes, and laughter at San Isabel Electric’s 87th Annual Meeting on Saturday, September 20. During the event, SIEA honored active duty and veteran service members, fed the crowd snacks and lunch, and presented information about the state of the co-op. Other than a slow lunch line, everyone had a great time. SIEA is already planning on ways to improve the lunch line flow at next year’s meeting.
DRIVE CLEAN COLORADO EV SHUTTLE SERVICE
Drive Clean Colorado provided an electric vehicle shuttle service at the meeting. About 200 guests utilized the free shuttle rides between parking lots and the front of the school. The EVs were provided by area dealerships or are personal vehicles from DCC employees:
- Ford F-150 Lightning
- Hyundai Ioniq 5
- Volkswagen ID 4
- Chevy Silverado EV and Kia EV9 from Spradley Dealerships, Pueblo
- Ford Mustang Mach-E from Alpine Ford
Nick Vigil also volunteered to drive Walsenburg Housing Authority’s 10-person passenger van, as he’s done in recent years to assist with shuttling guests back and forth.
GIFTS AND PRIZES
Meeting attendees were treated to a variety of gifts and giveaways. A total of 55 BINGO prizes — all purchased from small businesses within the cooperative’s service area — were distributed. Additionally, 20 $50 bills were handed out to lucky winners. Each member also received a San Isabel Electric cap, a thermal tote bag, and a locally-crafted ceramic tray.
Thank you to all who helped us celebrate SIEA at the annual meeting. We look forward to seeing you next year.
