Over 60 members show up to learn about the state of
our co-op and chart a course for the future.
The evening began with Luke Miratrix’s presentation featuring the financial status and goals of the CoG, 3 ways the Core Group is trying to stimulate revenue, and 3 simple ways each member can help.
After the presentation, a feedback forum gave CoG members a chance to share their ideas and questions regarding procedures, training, community and other areas where the CoG needs to move forward.
The meeting concluded with a busy hour of shopping the shelves and vigorous conversation by the visibly inspired and engaged attendees.
Next Town Hall Meeting: Sunday, August 30th (not labor day weekend) at 6pm. See you there.
Until then, KEEP SHOPPING!!
