The Explorer member (individual or household) learns about all areas of cohousing, becomes involved, and determines if they want to move forward and become a Full Member.  Explorers schedule an orientation meeting to learn about the status of the community’s development and ask any questions.

An Explorer Member invests $100 in the LLC as a non-refundable deposit, with an Explorer application. This entitles them to a minimum of 3 months, maximum of six months of learning, participation in presentations, meetings, activities and social events.  The Explorer stays abreast of where the community is in the process of development and what are the next steps. Explorers get acquainted with other members of the community.
