Produce so fresh you'll want to slap it!
Somehow, peaches have made their way to us and they are pretty
excellent!

the Hill Country ones!) So, get on over here and get some! You'll be
glad that you did!
Also in produce, Organic Strawberries that are reported as very tasty,
too!
Jump into the season with yummy fruit!

Upcoming events!
Friday May 18th is Bike to Work Day. As always, Wheatsville will be
encouraging human powered transit by hosting a breakfast station for
those excellent souls that ride their bike to work! We'll have light
breakfast from 7-9am, so ride on over and say hello!
We are having a fun sample day next weekend!
Please join us for our first ever G-R-R-Rill Off. We'll be cooking up
natural dogs and sausages and their vegetarian equivalents Saturday May
19th from 2-6 trying to decide which ones taste best! And you can help!
Come on out and join us!
(And now a word from your board of directors!)
The Board, Bylaws and You!
Dear Wheatsville Member-Owner,
As you know, our cooperatively-owned business is a special thing for
many reasons. One aspect that makes us distinct is that each member has
an equal voice in this democracy of ownership.
Our Bylaws are a fundamental basis for how we operate as a cooperative,
and how our democracy is made manifest. Our Co-op has been flourishing
over the past many years, and beautiful change and growth continue to
arrive like the spring.
As our organization has grown and will continue to evolve, the Bylaws
should continue to provide a healthy foundation for our operations,
both today and into the future. It is for this reason that the Board of
Directors has embarked on a process to update our Bylaws.
We take this task very seriously, and have been dedicated to the study
of how to best engage in this work. The Board will be keeping an open
line of communication to provide updates and to receive input from you.
We have also been working with national co-op experts to help ensure
that we will have a healthy foundation for our continuing growth.
Our current Bylaws are posted on our website:
http://www.wheatsville.coop/pop_bylaws.html
Please feel free to contact us at any time, and if you have any
specific ideas, suggestions, or concerns regarding our Bylaws, please
contact rose marie klee at rmk at alumni.utexas.net.
As we advance in this process, we will have various forums to update
you and to receive feedback. There will also be opportunities for
member-owners to review proposed changes, provide comments, and to
review the final recommended changes prior to a store vote.
Cooperatively Yours,
The Wheatsville Board of Directors
Bob Kinney – president
Colin Borchert – secretary
Jane Kurzawa Cravey – treasurer
Bryan Butler, Marilyn Fowler, Rose Marie Klee, Johnny Livesay, Anthony
Piccola, Jimmy Robertson
I hope you have a great week!
Dan Gillotte
Wheatsville GM and e-mail guy!
