OEC announces Drive-Thru Annual Meeting to be held Friday, Oct. 17 from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.

After a record-breaking Annual Meeting in 2024, OEC’s board of trustees decided to move forward with another drive-thru event this year.

“We registered 3,731 members last year in our second Drive-Thru Annual Meeting —beating the 2023 attendance record,” said Brianna Wall, manager of marketing and member relations. “Those numbers along with the positive responses we received on post-meeting surveys led to the decision to continue with a drive-thru format.”

While logistical improvements will be made to the event, one of the biggest changes members will see is to the prize pack they receive for attending.

What’s New This Year

Members attending the Drive-Thru Annual Meeting on Oct. 17 can expect to receive a $30 bill credit on their electric bill or prepaid account and have the chance to win a gift card in their registration prize pack, as well as one of four $500 grand prizes.

In addition to the $30 bill credit and chance for additional prizes, members will also receive a handy 2-gallon bucket, ball cap and ice cream spade upon registering at the event.

While final touches are being put on this year’s event, we hope you have your calendars marked and are looking forward to attending what is sure to be another historical event for OEC and our members.
