1. Co-op Summer Hours
The Co-op will begin operating under the following hours beginning May 8th.
May 8-12 11am-6pm
May 13 (Saturday) 12-5pm
May 14 (Sunday) Closed
May 15 (Monday) Closed

After this point we will have fairly regular summer hours of:
Tuesday-Saturday 12:00-7:00
Sunday and Monday Closed

We will keep you posted as to any changes that we anticipate during the
summer.

2. Looking for Fun this Summer?
Maybe you are looking for a way to chill out in the middle of the summer
heat.  Or maybe you need to commune with whole grains and Toffuti Cuties. 
Maybe you have just always wanted to help out the Co-op.

The summer is a time at the Co-op where things slow down.  But it doesn't
mean we take a total break!  We are looking for some Co-op supporters who
could give some time here and there to cashier at the Co-op in the moments
when Carrie and Torin will need to be out of town.  We keep going, but as
you probably could guess, our finances take the "dog days" of summer
literally and it is unfeasible to keep a fully paid staff to help with
this backup.

Most likely this would mean covering a 7 hour day at the cash register,
but we would fully train you on how to do a MARVELOUS job.

If you can help us out by being a volunteer cashier on an "as needed"
basis, please contact Carrie or Torin at the Co-op.  983-1547.

Thanks!
