CO-OPS ASSEMBLE!

“How can we better serve our members?” That’s the special question electric cooperatives continually ask ourselves and explore together at the Michigan Electric Cooperatives Symposium.

Join hundreds of colleagues, leaders, and experts working towards this common goal of member service to connect, network, collaborate, and exchange ideas at the 2023 Symposium, April 11-13 at the J.W. Marriott in Grand Rapids.

Learn more about this year’s exciting program, explore the venue, or register now!

RECEPTION

Fifth-Third Ballpark

All registered attendees are invited to our annual reception at Fifth-Third Ballpark (sponsored by MECA Associate Members.) This highly-attended event provides a key opportunity to network with managers, staff and decision-makers from Michigan’s electric co-ops and associate members. There isn’t a baseball game scheduled, but weather permitting there will be lawn games (corn hole, ladder ball, etc). Complimentary transportation from the JW Marriott, stadium food and beverages are all provided.

COME TOGETHER

The symposium inspires collaboration and innovative solutions to today’s pressing energy challenges.
