Dear friends,
On behalf of the NASCO Board of Directors, I am writing to request your nominations for the 2009 NASCO Hall of Fame.
The NASCO Cooperative Hall of Fame, created 20 years ago in 1989, honors the best of our movement. Our hope is to use the Hall of Fame as a means for NASCO member co-ops to provide broader recognition to individuals who have had a truly significant impact.
Nominations can honor people that perhaps should have been recognized long ago: a co-op founder, a long-time member or employee or any other significant contributor. We are also eager to show that current members and staff can have a similar impact on their cooperatives, so we make a special effort to induct some individuals who are current or recent 'movers and shakers'.
A committee of former NASCO board and staff will select inductees to the Hall of Fame for 2009. The induction ceremony will take place on the Friday evening of NASCO Institute, November 6th, 2009. Please consider adding nominations to the Hall of Fame to the agenda of your next board or house meeting so that you can select someone you feel deserves be honored this year.
Nomination forms (download below) must be returned to the Ann Arbor office of at the address below, by July 31, 2009.
Thank you in advance for your help!
In cooperation,
Rebecca Nole and Jim Jones
for the North American Students of Cooperation
