Our friends at the Washington Center for Employee Ownership (WACEO) have an event today in Colville!

Today’s event will be a friendly meetup for the community to gather, learn about employee ownership, meet people who are passionate about worker ownership, and ask questions about the growing movement.🌲

Employee ownership is a powerful tool for creating pathways for business succession, preserving local businesses, creating stable jobs, and keeping wealth rooted locally in the community. ⛰️

If you have been curious about employee ownership, have heard about WACEO, or simply enjoy meeting folks in your community, this is a great chance to stop by, settle in, and learn something new. ✨
