Dear Co-opers,
I hope you're all doing well! This month, we received eight nominations for Co-oper of the Month Award, and while we could only select one winner, we want to take a moment to recognize three incredible members for their contributions to our community.
- Isaac Valdez: Isaac has shown outstanding leadership, serving as Kidd House President for 10 consecutive terms and stepping up in various roles across different co-ops. His dedication to conflict resolution, democratic decision-making, and fostering a strong sense of community has made a lasting impact.
- Nori Quist and Emmet Roberts: The CZ Workshift Managers, have gone above and beyond to keep their house running smoothly despite challenges. From stepping in for missed shifts to passing a workshift policy at council, their teamwork and commitment exemplify cooperation at its best.
- Vivian Cormany: The Lothlorien Kitchen Manger has led the effort to repaint the entire Loth kitchen, organizing the project from start to finish. Their leadership brought the community together to complete this major renovation, demonstrating dedication and initiative.
Thank you to Isaac, Nori, Emmet, and Vivian for your hard work and commitment to making our co-op a better place. Your efforts do not go unnoticed!
Cooperatively,
Hamid Hakimi (he/him)
Vice President of Experience and Training
Rochdale Board Rep (4)
