    Note on Change of Meeting Times:
    The board of directors for the Co-Op meets on Thursdays and requires their board room. Most of the time they are able to meet on the third Thursday of the month. Several times last year they had to meet late in the month, which meant that we had to find alternate places to meet - often in the space of one week or less.
    
    - To avoid any future conflicts, we propose to change our meeting times to the 4th Tuesday of each month. According to the Co-Op, there is no group that meets on Tuesdays at all.
