We ask you to participate in some manner in the governance and operation of the Cooperative.

Minimally, you attend the annual shareholders meeting and help make careful choices in electing the Board of Directors. These are the people you authorize to make the most formal decisions regarding the Cooperative. We also have committees to become a member of and learn more about the operations of the Cooperative. Plus there are many social activities that benefit from your participation — casseroles for our potluck suppers, perhaps. Members also help with operational tasks. This helps keep our costs down. For example, you may decide to deliver newspapers from the front door to the individual units on your floor.
