Members, Have You Received Your Patronage Refund Checks?
added 05/01/08
Over $561,000 in patronage refunds to Co-op members are in the mail. This year, the refund rate is 1.1 percent of purchases made in 2007 and will be paid 75 percent in cash and 25 percent in Co-op shares. Issuing some of the refund in shares allows the Board to build the funds available to implement future improvements, thereby reinvesting
in the Co-op.
