Get your bids in! That precious co-op item might be snatched by another enthusiastic bidder! The auction ends at 12:45 p.m. on Saturday!
The silent auction benefits the Bowers Fund, which supports the food co-op sector by giving grants for training and education of food co-op managers, staff, and boards. The Cooperative Development Foundation, which manages the Bowers Fund, and the Bowers Fund advisors thank you for your support of the Bowers Fund in the past and hope you will participate in the silent auction this year and in the future.
Wrapping up this year’s conference, the Saturday Night Party will be held at Reading Terminal Market with the band Sharon Katz and The Peace Train and The Give and Take Jugglers
