PEC Day Is Saturday, September 28

Watch for your Annual Meeting program to arrive in the mail soon!

Your personal invitation to PEC’s 86th Annual Meeting of the Members should be arriving soon in your mailbox and we look forward to seeing you!

This highly anticipated yearly event, commonly referred to as “PEC Day,” will be held at the Pontotoc County Agri-Plex, located at the corner of J.A. Richardson Loop and Broadway in Ada on Saturday, September 28, 2024. Don’t forget to bring cash for crafts, as some vendors might only accept cash payments. But fear not, there are plenty of FREE activities to enjoy, including live music, amusement rides, pony rides, and a petting zoo. Also, indulge in free cotton candy and popcorn while you’re at it!

Annual Meeting Program

As soon as you receive your program (shown at right), be sure to keep it so you can present it to registration workers at the meeting. Registration will open at 9 AM and will close at 12:35 PM. Your event program, arriving soon, is your ticket to prizes. Don’t forget to hang onto your program after you register through the drive-thru. You’ll need it to claim any prizes drawn inside the Big Red Barn.

Registration

To streamline your experience, registration will take place from your vehicle upon your entry to the Agri-Plex parking area, making it super easy for everyone. Enter from the westbound lane of J A Richardson Loop and use the exits on North Broadway Avenue – no entry from North Broadway Avenue.

Once you’ve registered and received your gift, stay and immerse yourself in the fun! Park your car and dive into all the excitement – enjoy live entertainment, free amusement rides, and pony rides. Meet adorable animals at our free petting zoo, and explore our incredible lineup of craft and food vendors. 851212601

You Get the Credit

For your convenience, cost savings and added protection, your capital credit retirement, previously provided through a check and sent by US mail, will now be applied as a bill credit on this month’s September statement. Traditionally, you received capital credits in the form of physical checks, requiring additional steps such as depositing or cashing them. However, recognizing the evolving needs and preferences of our membership, the majority of this year’s capital credits will be issued as a bill credit to your bill. Not seeing a capital credit refund on your bill? Learn more on our website by scanning the QR code on page 4.
