Annual Meeting Postponed Until Further Notice
Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and recommended guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), state and local officials, OEC's board of trustees elected to postpone the Annual Meeting and Member Appreciation Night until further notice.
Originally scheduled for Aug. 14, the annual event draws 6,000-7,500 members and their family members for a night of barbecue, entertainment, prizes and more.
"Across the nation, our co-op peers are facing this same decision," said CEO Patrick Grace. "While it wasn't an easy one, we felt the safety of our employees, members, Lloyd Noble Center workers, caterers, entertainers and everyone involved should come first."
At press time, the City of Norman continues its phasing-in of businesses and social gatherings. As a result, we are unable to set a new date.
"Until we can meet again, we will continue following the guidance set forth by our officials," said Grace.
