New meeting schedule announced

We have been moving along and making a lot of progress with our existing meeting schedule. But it's time for a change to accommodate more new members. Starting November 7, here is new plan:

First Sunday of every month. Business meeting, 6:30 to 9 pm. Optional takeout dinner at 6. If you have never been to a Green Haven meeting, we encourage you to attend one of the social meetings first. But if you want to come to a business meeting first, please come at 6 for a brief orientation while we eat. Dinner is usually about $7 apiece.

Second Sunday of every month. Orientation & Potluck, 6 pm. This is primarily a social meeting, a way for all of us to get to know each other and for people just beginning to explore cohousing to get their questions answered. If there is pressing business, members may convene a committee meeting or brief business meeting after dinner. Visitors may stay to observe or participate, or they may choose to leave at that time.

Saturday following second Sunday of every month. Business meeting, 6:30 to 9 pm.

28th of every month (day of week varies). Orientation & hosted dinner. 6 pm. If this is your first contact with Green Haven and you are shy about showing up with a dish for the potluck, this is the stress-free alternative. Members will prepare and provide the meal. All you have to do is show up with an appetite and your questions. The day of the week floats, to accommodate those for whom weekend meetings are problematic. Otherwise, this meeting follows the same format as the orientation and potluck on the Saturday following the second Sunday.

An RSVP by email is always appreciated for planning purposes (and so we can tell you where the meeting is). If you have special dietary restrictions, mention them at that time.
