Member Responsibilities
Workjobs
Workjobs are a vital aspect of cooperative living. They are the "household chores" necessary for the house to function. Each member is assigned 4.5 hours of workjobs per week. Time spent on workjobs vary depending upon the workjob, the efficiency of the individual, and the season of the year. For example, the work involved with Grounds Crew will depend on the season. Prospective members should carefully consider if they have the time and capacity to commit to completing 4.5 hours of chores each week.
- All members take turns cooking house dinner. Depending on how many people are living in the house, you may cook about once every 2-4 weeks. House dinners are served Sunday - Thursday at 6pm.
- All members are scheduled for Dishes or Floors to clean up after house dinners about 2 times per month depending on occupancy.
- Members are assigned additional workjob duties such as cleaning, maintenance, winter shoveling, yard work, or administrative work.
Work Weekend
Every spring and fall, the house spends a Saturday taking care of the storm windows, deep cleaning, and other house projects. We start the day with a tasty breakfast and celebrate the end with a well earned dinner ordered by the house.
House Meetings
House meetings are opportunities for members to communicate, propose ideas, and discuss all manner of house matters. Meetings are held every two-and-a-half weeks, alternating Sundays and Wednesdays.
