Recruiting for Steep Hill Committee Members
April 9, 2022
Would you like to become more involved as a Steep Hill Co-op member? Do you have expertise that would benefit the co-op? We have some new opportunities for members to earn working status (which entitles you to a 6% discount at the till).
The board of Steep Hill is forming the following committees to help strengthen and support the co-op. Each committee will include at least one board member and at least one other co-op member. The time commitment may vary across committees and from month to month; non-Board members will receive one month’s working status for every two hours of work they spend on a committee. We ask for a one-year commitment.
More details about the tasks of each committee will be developed by its members, but these are the general responsibilities.
