2023-24 Dairyland Board of Directors

Dairyland's Board of Directors is comprised of one director elected by each of the local boards of Dairyland's 24 distribution electric cooperatives. These directors are nominated and elected annually by the delegates representing the member cooperatives at Dairyland’s Annual Meeting held in June.

Directors are elected consumer-members of their respective cooperatives and - via the 2nd Cooperative Principle – provide strategic guidance and oversight to Dairyland's President & CEO. The board meets monthly, usually at Dairyland's headquarters in La Crosse, Wis.
