Our Member Advisory Committee (MAC) is made up of as many as five members from each of Golden Valley Electric Association's seven geographical districts. Committee members serve two-year terms.
MAC members represent the interests of the general membership and act as a sounding board between the Board of Directors and the membership.
MAC members also serve on co-op committees such as district nominating committees and the annual meeting committee, assist at the annual members' meeting and serve as election judges for annual board elections.
