As we settle into the heat of July, our homes naturally use more electricity. Air conditioners run longer, refrigerators work harder and daily routines — from cooking dinner to doing laundry — often overlap during the warmest parts of the day. That’s also when the demand for electricity across our community is at its highest.
As we are preparing to welcome you to the Annual Meeting on June 6, I think it’s appropriate to recall that for the last 90 years, URE has been guided by a strong sense of purpose, powered by our members.
URE is celebrating the retirement of Dave Speicher, CFO/VP of finance and accounting, after 31 years of dedicated service. His leadership and contributions have helped shape URE into the cooperative it is today.
Congratulations to Anne Twaddle on earning an additional $1,900 scholarship for her honorable mention at the Ohio’s Electric Cooperatives Children of Members Scholarship competition, held April 7.
