Interested in helping to guide the future of your Co-op? Run for a seat on the Board of Directors! Candidate applications are due August 29 at 3pm, and the election will be in October.

The Board of Directors plays a critical role in ensuring the continued success and health of the Co-op. They represent all Owners in setting the standards for the Co-op’s performance, engaging primarily in developing the vision and long-term viability of the Co-op. The Board uses the Policy Governance Model to oversee the Co-op, a system that emphasizes values, vision, and the empowerment and accountability of both the staff and the Board.

Attending a Board Orientation Session is required for candidates (current Board members are exempt from this requirement). There are three scheduled meetings, but an alternate meeting may be scheduled with sufficient notice. You can find all of requirements in the Board candidate packet, linked below.
