Subject: New General Manager at Chatham Marketplace
You will be seeing a new face at Chatham Marketplace this week. Our general manager, Mary DeMare, will be leaving her position in order to pursue an exciting opportunity. She is going to help her brother campaign for Senator in Ohio. Mary has been a part of our community for 6 ½ years and we will miss her. We wish her well on her new journey.
The Board of Directors has been hard at work conducting a national search for a replacement for Mary. A decision has been made to hire an interim general manager while the Board continues searching for a permanent replacement. We are happy to welcome Phil Guida as interim General Manager. Phil has spent the past five years in Minnesota and recently moved back to North Carolina. He is a long time veteran of the Co-op world and has over 25 years experience.
Phil will be in the store beginning Monday, December 12, working with Mary and our staff to assure a smooth transition. Come by and welcome Phil to our amazing community.
