Member Advisory Committee (MAC) meetings & news

Member Advisory Committee (MAC) meetings.

At the February MAC meetings, held over two evenings, members attended a presentation led by Wake Electric’s Senior Vice President and Assistant General Manager, Don Bowman. The presentation provided an overview of Wake Electric’s Member Services department. Bowman explained the role of Member Services, highlighting key areas such as communications, community programs, WECare, and Operation RoundUp. He detailed how these programs enhance member engagement, provide financial assistance, and foster community support. The discussion also underscored Wake Electric’s commitment to keeping members informed through various communication channels and strengthening community ties through educational initiatives and charitable giving. Tracy Prince of Franklinton High School spoke to the assembled members to talk about her experience winning education grants from Wake Electric, the impact on her students and their learning. The meeting offered a platform for members to ask questions directly to the management team on a range of topics, fostering an open dialogue. Each evening included a catered dinner, with several drawings for $50 bill credits.
