I wonder if you all recall the presence VAWC had at the last USFWC conference in the auction. I certainly do, and remember people introducing themselves to each other because of it as well as being introduced to interco-operation, VAWC style. I am headed out to California on Sunday and am looking for auction items from each of the VAWC co-ops. Can you bring something to the VAWC meeting Wednesday or send me something by Friday or Saturday? I think it is especially important for those co-ops who can't attend as you can maintain a presence despite the distance, and I can have something to support the conversation as intalk about you when people have questions. It's a great way of attracting people to your services and expertise as well as supporting our national federation's mission. Examples from previous years' auction items: Tee shirts, gift certificates to your services (let me know if you need support getting something worked out) and books, as well as other items from your particular industry, ie a mini solar panel product, worker co-op coffee/chocolate, etc) Looking forward to spreading the word about your item, Adam __________________________ Worker/Owner Collective Copies Representative to the Valley Alliance of Worker Co-operatives Working for a Co-operative Economy www.valleyworker.org -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
