Monthly Store Meetings

Routine business is conducted at monthly store meetings, held on the third Thursday of each month at 7:00 pm in the store. Although only the Board of Stewards are able to vote at these meetings, member participation is actively sought, and the meetings are run on democratic principles. All members will receive work credit for attending meetings.

Committee Meetings

In addition to membership and store meetings, there are also committee meetings. Members earn work credit for attending all meetings.

Annual Membership Meeting

By-law amendments and organizational goals are reviewed and approved by the membership at the annual membership meeting. As needed, general membership meetings may be scheduled on thirty days' notice at any time of year to deal with particularly pressing issues requiring the approval of the membership. Each membership has one vote at these meetings.

Elections

The nine-member Board of Stewards oversees policy and long-term planning. Our stewards, elected from the membership, meet at 7:00 pm on the third Thursday of every month. All are encouraged to attend the meetings; both the staff and Stewards serve you, our members and shoppers.

Board members are elected to two-year terms at the annual membership meeting, held each spring. Five stewards are elected on odd-numbered years, four on even-numbered years to provide continuity. There are no term limits.
