2022 ANNUAL OWNERS’ MEETING
4 p.m. Saturday, April 23, via Zoom
It’s almost time for our Annual Owners’ Meeting! Please take a few moments and register to attend.
Our agenda will include the results of our Board of Directors election and reports on the state of the co-op from our board and general manager. As always, there will be prizes! (You do have to be present at the meeting to win.)
Our special guest this year is Samantha Kirstein, Fairbanks Community Food Bank Community Development Director.
We’ll be meeting via Zoom, so we’ve created a set of Virtual Meeting Guidelines with important rules and instructions. Please read them before attending our meeting.
Note: Registration is required. Please RSVP here. When you register, you will receive the Zoom login information by email as soon as we’ve confirmed that you are an Owner.
Our meeting will start at 4 p.m., but you can enter the waiting room at 3:30 p.m. Please come in at least 15 minutes early to ensure you don’t have any technical problems.
You will be asked to vote by poll to approve the meeting agenda and last year’s minutes during the business meeting.
We look forward to seeing you!
P.S. If you are one of the first 50 Owners to register, we’ll enter you in a drawing for a $100 gift certificate! To win, you must be present when your name is called.
