Throughout each year, REC participates in hundreds of events supporting local communities and organizations. From presentations in school classrooms to displays at fairs and street festivals to speaking at meetings and events, REC is there for you. Commitment to our communities is one of the seven cooperative principles, and in addition to supporting communities in their events, REC also has created opportunities for member-owners to connect with their Cooperative.
