Judging from the edited excerpt of a recording of the meeting made by Blue, there is plenty of enthusiasm. Leader Elizabeth Angello proposed that herself, Ed Fertik, Skip Speed, Jeffrey French, and Jim Cashen, Sr., should make up the interim board of the co-op, which was approved. The co-op is moving into the space in Main St. that Stewart's recently abandoned. The group holds a full public meeting today, Sunday, Feb. 13, at 2:30 p.m. at the Philmont Town Hall, and they plan another there March 22. Blue will post a full recording of today's meeting soon on the WGXC website.
