Leadership

Officers for the Western Farmers Electric Cooperative (WFEC) Board of Trustees were elected during an Organizational Meeting, hosted Wednesday, April 17 at the cooperative’s Anadarko headquarters. The Board’s Organizational Meeting followed the Annual Meeting of Members, in which 22 of the existing trustees were returned to the Board, with one new addition. These meetings were hosted after the regular monthly Board of Trustees meeting.

David Ray (seated), who serves on the Board of Kiamichi Electric Cooperative in Wilburton, was re-elected as WFEC Board President for the coming year. Other officers, all re-elected to their current positions,  include (standing, from left) Gary Crain, who serves on the Board of Canadian Valley Electric Cooperative in Seminole, assistant secretary-treasurer; Charles Hickey, a trustee from Northfork Electric Cooperative in Sayre, vice president; and Mike Lebeda, a trustee from Kay Electric Cooperative in Blackwell, secretary-treasurer.

WFEC's business and affairs are managed by a Board of Trustees. WFEC trustees understand and approve the business operations conducted by our generation and transmission cooperative. They are also responsible for selecting a CEO who supervises and coordinates the day-to-day business operations.
