We meet every week (except for Board weeks) to discuss basically anything and everything that falls outside of an individual person's job description but not important enough to need a Board decision, as well as to review items heading to Board.
All members are welcome and encouraged to come and participate. Email the President, Olivia Kehoe, at president@bsc.coop for questions or comments. Feel free to request an agenda in advance or join our members at large listserv to get more information.
