Good Morning Everyone!!!
The Spa City Co-op market is now open for ordering at spacity.locallygrown.net. Please place your orders before Tuesday at 9 pm, and plan to pick up your orders at Emergent Arts on Friday June 26th from 3:30 – 5:30, preferably before 5 pm.

Don’t forget – this market has no paid positions, so we NEED VOLUNTEERS to run every market. It’s fun, you get a $5 gift card, and you learn so much about local foods in Arkansas.

Correction-Volunteer Needed for 2:00-3:30


Correction to the email just posted: The volunteer spot we need filled for this Friday is 2:00-3:30.

Volunteer Needed for Friday!


We are in need of a volunteer for the 2:00-3:30 slot for this Friday’s pick-up day.

Volunteering is expected of all members, even if it just once or twice a year. For the benefit of some of our newer members, and those who may need a refresher, below is a review of volunteer info:

This is YOUR co-op and volunteers keep it going. There are no paid workers. Every time you are able to place an order and pick it up, it is because market managers volunteered to run the market and pick-up day volunteers signed up to staff it.

Volunteer shifts are usually 2:00 to 3:30 and 2:00 to 5:30 pm, but other arrangements may be possible. Just let me know what works for you.

You are coming to pick up your order anyway, so sign up to volunteer and spend some extra time there one day! You do not need to make a regular recurring commitment, just an occasional one.

Volunteering is easy, fun, and a great way to get to know your fellow co-opers. And each volunteer receives a free, two-month extension of co-op membership every time he volunteers. The volunteer filling the longer 2:00-5:30 shift also receives a $5 Walmart gift/gas card.

We are using VolunteerSpot (an online sign-up and reminder tool) to schedule our pick-up day volunteers.

Here’s how it works:

1. Click this link to go to our invitation page on VolunteerSpot:

http://tinyurl.com/Co-opVolunteers

2. Enter your email address (No registration required!) Please note: VolunteerSpot does not share your email address with anyone or send spam emails.

3. Sign up!

You can view the upcoming calendar, select a day and shift to volunteer, make changes to your volunteer days, etc. VolunteerSpot will send you confirmation and reminder emails.

It’s that easy!

Of course, if you prefer not to enter the VolunteerSpot site, you can always email me at kgharbut@aol.com

Thanks!
