MEMBERS IN THE NEWS
Springs Content Studio has officially launched by member Alissa Paolella. "The work of ethical marketing is all about shining a light on a person’s body of work, the services a business offers or the mission of a nonprofit so it’s visible to the folks who might need it — without bending the truth." Alissa Paolella, Yellow Springs News

Springs Content Studio helps small businesses and nonprofits find the words that move people to act. For more about this new marketing & branding content studio, visit https://www.springscontentstudio.com/

Through Springs Content Studio, village resident Alissa Paolella focuses on strategy, writing, design and public relations storytelling — or, as they put it, “how you get your story out there.”

As downtown continues to grow, the community is invited to take part in the “Next Steps” conversations as discussions continue around exploring a potential transition of the grocery store into a local co-op model.

This is an opportunity to stay informed, share input, and be part of shaping what a community-driven approach could look like for the future.

There’s been a lot of conversation about whether Springs Market could become a community-owned co-op, and now you can be part of making it happen. Co-op Dayton is hosting a series of Community Open Houses this month to share how the co-op model works and how to get involved in forming a Steering Committee.

Three chances to come learn and ask questions:
• June 25, Thursday at 6 p.m. - YS Senior Center
• June 27, Saturday at 11 a.m. - Agraria
• June 30, Tuesday at 1 p.m. - MVECA
