If you are a customer of WFECA, or West Florida Electric Cooperative, then you are actually a member of that cooperative and benefit from that membership through electric power rates which are as low as possible.
West Florida Electric Cooperative is managed by a Board of Trustees, of which there are nine members.
Myron Hudson has represented District 9 on the WFEC Board of Trustees for the last ten years and has been a member of the West Florida Electric Cooperative for the past 46 years.
He has earned his Credential Cooperative Director’s certification through the National Rural Electric Cooperative Association (NRECA) and has served his community in numerous roles and functions through
out the past 50 years.
Those services include: Trustee, Chipola College Board; Washington/Holmes Technical Center Advisory Board; Board of Directors for Holmes County Chamber of Commerce; and Panhandle Area Education Consortium (PAEC).
Ballots for the West Florida Electric Cooperative Board of Trustees will be sent to WFECA members on March 25, 2021, and Myron Hudson would appreciate your support and vote.
