How to Become a Candidate

Members may petition for candidacy in their district by gathering not less than 10 signatures of members from that district.


Members must be able to commit to attending the monthly board meeting, which is typically scheduled at 4:00 p.m. on the first Monday of each month. Additionally, interested members should expect three to five days annually to serve on committees and/or attend education and training.


The primary duty of a director is to act on behalf of the entire membership in making business decisions to further the goals of the Cooperative. These decisions include establishing policies and directing the CEO in carrying out the day-to-day affairs of the Cooperative and service to members. Each member is entitled to receive equal treatment and is bound by the same serrules and requirements.


Your Cooperative is a self-supporting, sustainable business directed and controlled by its Board of Directors for the sole purpose of serving the members’ needs, not making a profit.


If you are interested, please contact the Cooperative by email at scec@scec.coop or by phone at 715-796-7000. Interested members will be required to visit our office to pick up a packet and attend a brief informational meeting.


The deadline for submitting required paperwork to appear on the 2026 ballot is Tuesday, Feb. 24.

  • Member (name on account) and bona fide resident in premises served by the Cooperative in the district she/he represents OR when a membership is held by joint tenants, tenants in common, a partnership or a corporation, one of the joint tenants, tenants in common, partners or officers, but not more than one, may be elected a director, provided, however, that such person shall not be eligible to become or remain a director or hold a position of trust in the Cooperative unless all the joint tenants, tenants in common, partners or officers meet the qualifications.
