\"\"<\/a>WALL<\/strong> \u2013 Things will be a little different at Golden West\u2019s 68th Annual Meeting, to be held on Saturday, Sept. 26. Changes include a new meeting time and location to simplify the schedule and allow more space for social distancing.<\/p>\n

The meeting will start at 11 a.m. in the Wall School gymnasium at 401 South Blvd. in Wall. Registration is from 9:30 \u2013 10:45 a.m. Attendees should park and enter on the west side of the building.<\/p>\n

\u201cGolden West encourages members and employees to practice social distancing every day, and we will take many special precautions to make it possible at the annual meeting, as well,\u201d said Golden West General Manager and CEO Denny Law. \u201cWhile we have business to conduct as an organization, keeping our members and employees safe is always of the utmost importance.\u201d<\/p>\n

Precautions to prevent the spread of COVID-19, include changes to minimize movement and up-close interaction, for example:<\/p>\n

Tickets for free lunch from one of five restaurants will be distributed to those who attend the meeting and can be redeemed later.<\/p>\n

Attendees will automatically be registered for cash and gift card door prizes, including a $500 grand prize. Members must be present when to win.<\/p>\n

Drawings for door prizes will take place as ballots are counted in lieu of entertainment to expedite the meeting.<\/p>\n

Also, Golden West will distribute hand sanitizer and a pen to everyone who registers, along with a registration gift. Masks will also be available.<\/p>\n

Members can influence the future of the cooperative with their meeting vote. Four of 15 board seats are up for election with three incumbents running unopposed and four candidates vying for one open seat. Those running for election are:<\/p>\n

District II \u2013 Gerry Sloat, Judy Goldhammer, Ryan Kjerstad, and Tanner Handcock vie for an open seat as incumbent Rod Renner did not seek re-election.<\/p>\n

District III \u2013 Incumbent Lee Briggs runs unopposed.<\/p>\n

District V \u2013 Incumbent Stu Marty runs unopposed.<\/p>\n

District IX \u2013 Incumbent Jeff Nielsen runs unopposed.<\/p>\n

Members will also vote on proposed changes to the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws.<\/p>\n

Any member requiring special accommodations to have full and equal participation in the meeting is asked to contact the Golden West business office at 1-855-888-7777 prior to the meeting.<\/p>\n
