It's time to vote in the CGN Annual Board Election. We have three people on the ballot this year: Annie Hoy, our current president (from Ashland Food Co-op in Ashland, Oregon) and Eric Struve (IT from Outpost Natural Foods in Milwaukee, Wisconsin) are up for re-election to 3-year terms on the board. Erika Gavin, Art Director at Hanover Co-op Food Stores in Vermont and New Hampshire is also running, for a first term on the board. We have three open seats in this election.
Please download your ballot from link below to read more from the candidates and learn more about CGN. We also welcome Bella Waters to the board. She has been appointed to fill a position recently vacated by Marc BrownGold. Many of you know Bella from her previous work as the Operations Manager of CGN, working with Karen Zimbelman. We are grateful to Bella for stepping up to fill this board-appointed position, until our next election cycle.
If your co-op is in good standing with CGN, having paid 2015 dues, you are eligible to vote in the election. If you are receiving this message but are no longer the person who represents your co-op on CGN, please pass it along to the person in that role now and/or to your general manager. Shoot me an email at ellen@grocer.coop too, so that we can keep our roster current.
Thank you for your participation in this election, and in CGN!
