Second Owner-Member General Membership Meeting

On May 21,2007 Chester's Community Grocery Co-op held its second general membership meeting. This meeting was held at the historic Armory on Sproul Street in Chester, PA.
General Membership Meetings are open to all members of the Co-op who are in good standing. These meetings are where we discuss the business of the co-op from the treasurer's report, to committee reports.
This particular General Membership Meeting we voted in our Board of Directors, read and accepted the By-laws and Articles of Incorporation, as well as held our Farm Fresh Market.
General Membership Meetings are important to the Co-op because this is the time that each member household adds his or her voice, ideas, opinions, and vote to the actions that are taking place and will take place in the operations of the Co-op.
If you were unable to attend the General Membership Meeting the minutes will be posted on the website for you to read or feel free to contact the Board of Directors if you have any questions boarddirectors@chestercoop.com.
We had a great turn out. A great vote of thanks to the General Membership Committee for setting the meeting up, and the Nominating Committee for the hard work to identify the nominees for the board. A great thank you to everyone who participated.

The next general membership meeting will be held in September. The more participation we have the stronger the voice in the Co-op will be and the better it will be as a business serving its owner-members.
