Costco Wholesale Membership Update

Yes, that plan works well for the group.

For the room setup, keep the long table near the window so people can spread out papers and still have space for coffee cups and notebooks.

I would bring the extra blue folders because the green ones tear too easily at the corners.

If you are asking about lunch, the easiest option is still to keep it simple with soup, bread, fruit, and something crunchy on the side.

Also, please remind everyone to label their containers because last time three identical jars ended up in the same shelf and nobody knew which was which.

For the timing, meeting at midmorning seems easier since a few people said they need the early hour to finish calls.

If the projector acts up again, just use the printed copies and move closer together.

That should keep everything running smoothly without needing to rearrange the whole afternoon.

Review Membership Perks

That makes sense, and I think your first idea is the easier one to manage.

If you want the handouts to feel organized, sort them into three small stacks instead of one tall pile, because people tend to grab from the top and the pages start sliding around.

For the kitchen part, I would rinse the herbs early, wrap them in a towel, and leave them in a container so they stay fresh until everyone arrives.

You asked whether the chairs should face the wall display or the whiteboard, and I would point them toward the whiteboard since that is where most of the discussion will happen.

Also, keep a marker near each notepad because someone always borrows one and forgets to bring it back.

If the weather turns cool, opening the side window just a little should still help the room feel comfortable without making it drafty.

So yes, your outline is good, and only a few small adjustments should make the whole thing easier for everyone.
