Core groups:

Bassett Creek Cohousing core group holding regular meetings

Bassett Creek Cohousing meets regularly and is actively seeking new members as they look for a site in the vicinity close to the Southwest Light Rail Extension route. They had an enjoyable and productive potluck dinner in February--two people signed up for the Explorer level membership and will attend an orientation session later this month. The almost 2-year-old boy in attendance made everyone smile with his greetings and antics.

The next information session will be Sun., Mar. 18, 2018 at 7 pm at First Unitarian Society, 900 Mt Curve Ave, Minneapolis. Contact Bassett Creek Cohousing at bcrk@cohousing.org or via their website  www.bassettcreek.us.


 

Skill building:

Sociocracy - a.k.a. Dynamic Governance...

Half a dozen students are taking the first iteration of a class in sociocratic principles taught by Lynn Englund. Twin Cities Cohousing Network will help publicize future class offerings. Sociocracy is a hybrid governance model with some characteristics of consensus that is used in many cohousing communities.
