We'll be having a pitch-in dinner prior to the business meeting. Bring your favorite, healthy dish to share with your fellow member-owners.
2) BRING YOUR FAVORITE, HEALTHY RECIPE
Indy Food Co-op will be publishing a cookbook of our owner-members' favorite recipes! An old family favorite or something you've created -- we are looking for the best recipes to include in the Indy Food Co-op owner-member cookbook (complete the recipe on the form you will be e-mailed to ensure that all formats are consistent).
3) Please RSVP by Monday, May 11, so that we can adequately plan.
Parking: Parking for the Boner Center is located behind the building, in the parking lot just east of the building, on 10th Street, or in the Burger King parking lot. Enter the building from the back (north) side.
It's an exciting time to be a part of Indy's first member-owned, non-profit cooperative grocery store. Don't miss our very first official Indy Food Co-op member-owner meeting!
We hope to see you there!
