Our annual meeting for 2010 was held Saturday, January 30th, near Hancock, WI.
25 of our 53 member farms were represented. Members were asked by the Board to give their inut on several plans to restructure the pay-price for cattle, to ensure a consistant, year-round supply of quality grass-fed beef, increase operating capital for the Co-op, as well as offer producers a fair price for their finished cattle.
A highlight of the day was the chance to inspect the refrigerated delivery van recently acquired by WGBC to get our products to retail and restaurant partners throughout Wisconsin.
WGBC officers elected for 2010 are:
Bob Van De Boom, Delavan — President
Greg Nowicki, Athens — Vice President
Margaret Guidarelli, East Troy — Treasurer
Lanice Szomi, Medford Secretary
John Ovadal, Watertown — Director
