    Hi,
    Great idea. There was a cooperatively owned bar in Milwaukee in the 80’s called the Interlude, it was around for at least 5 years in the near west side. I know there are a few members of Riverwest Coop that were members of that. Might be good idea to find out what worked and what didn’t. It was a fantastic, fun place to go with a great community feel and good food too.
    Let me know when you can buy a membership on line
    Good luck!

    I am so excited about this.
    I will try to come on Sunday at the Art Bar to get signed up as a lifetime member and learn how to get more involved. I am currently on the Board of NASCO a bi-national cooperative organization that helps coops get started all over Canada and the US. Black Star co-op in Austin are good models for this project and I am oh so pumped about finding a way to plug in!

    Cheers,
    rebecca

    A couple of practical questions about membership:

    1. Is the lifetime membership a “household” membership like at the Riverwest Co-op? (If I join, is my spouse/partner also a member?)

    2. Have you hit the 100-member threshold yet? I’m really enticed by the whole personalized stein deal.

    I’m very interested so please get back to me when you can.
