SECO Energy Board of Trustees Elects 2025 Officers

At its March 31 meeting, the SECO Energy Board of Trustees elected its Officers for 2025. Board President and District 3 Trustee, Gerald Anderson, was re-elected to serve a fourth consecutive term as Board President. District 9 Trustee and Board Secretary/Treasurer, Morgan Hatfield, was elected to serve her first term as Board Vice President. District 2 Trustee, Joyce Anderson, was elected to serve as the Secretary/Treasurer – a role she previously held between 2022 and 2023.

 

SECO Energy is a not-for-profit electric cooperative that is operated for and owned by the members it serves. SECO Energy’s 2,100-square-mile service area is divided into nine geographic Districts. Trustees are democratically elected by the members who reside in each District. As SECO Energy’s governing body, the Board of Trustees provides oversight and plays an essential role in policy-making decisions.

 

President Anderson expressed his appreciation for the opportunity to continue serving as a SECO Trustee. “SECO Energy is a well-run cooperative that puts the needs of its members first,” said Anderson. “As Board members, we work closely with SECO’s Executive Leadership Team to guide the cooperative toward fulfilling its Mission. In my six years of service on the SECO Board, we have approved new technologies and innovations that help our members understand and manage their monthly energy use – putting them in control of their budget.”

 

SECO Energy’s Mission, as a not-for-profit electric cooperative, is to provide reliable and innovative energy services to its members and communities.

 

SECO Energy CEO Curtis Wynn is grateful for the dedication of the SECO Board of Trustees. “Our nine-member Board of Trustees dedicates countless working hours in service to the membership,” said Wynn. “Trustee governance is integral to a cooperative’s success. This group understands that members’ needs are evolving, and that SECO needs to evolve as well.”

 

Wynn continued, “I am very grateful for the foresight of our Trustees. They understand our values, our goals, and our strategic vision. Together, we continue to explore new technologies and programs that enhance reliability and safety, while maintaining affordable electric service.”
