June 2 at 10:00 am, 3845 North Swan Street – "Silver City Food Co-op"
 Kevin Waters, General Manager of the Silver City Food Co-op, will talk about about the Co-op's progress and expectations on their move to a new location at 907 Pope Street.
 "The Silver City Food Co-op is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. The Co-op has been providing Grant County with a growing selection of organic, sustainable, and ethically sourced groceries at their current storefront of 520 Bullard Street for nearly 40 years. Adjusted for inflation, the Co-op now sells nearly 8 times annually what they did in their first year at the location. Their upcoming move will provide an improved customer experience, and allow for future growth," Waters said.
 Waters said that the Silver City Co-op is a cooperatively owned business, now with over 1,900 member owners. It is led by a board of directors made up of volunteer member owners.
 The Silver City Food Cooperative strives to provide healthy food and products, supporting local and organic growers/vendors in a just, responsible, and sustainable manner.
 Waters added that the Silver City Food Co-op exists so that our community has access to healthy, high-quality food, especially local and organic food; and embraces a welcoming culture that values diversity, equity, inclusiveness and respect in all that we do.
 "We want informed, engaged and empowered shoppers and a workplace that promotes excellent customer service and fosters opportunities for participation and growth," he said.
 Childcare is available every Sunday. Zoey Cronin will lead a formal children's program on second and fourth Sundays. Â
 Children are welcome to participate on any Sunday, but they will get the most out of the program if they attend second and fourth Sundays somewhat regularly. Family adults may stay for the children's program or attend the adult program. Children are encouraged to bring a small item that represents someone or something they are grateful for that week.
 There are speakers on the patio if you wish to listen to the service outside.
