It has been a wild and wonderful ride serving on the Board of Directors of this great little store. They say that at first serving on a Board of a natural foods co-op is like stepping aboard a moving train. It doesn’t really stop for you. Luckily there are always some people who have been on the train for a while and know the ropes.
I am just beginning to settle into the grounding effect and tremendous support of our governance system. As I start to GET what it is all about and our board responsibilities, I can relax and look around at my fellow board members and begin to enjoy them and the co-creating we can do.
We need new directors now, so come to a Board meeting as a guest. See who we are and what we do and how we do it. Our elections for directors will be upon us soon. To become a director, you must have been a Co-op owner for 6 months. We need diverse voices representing our whole community.
Bring yours!
-Kathy Faith,
Board of Directors
