How to Join the Hornby Island Co-op
How do you become a member? IT'S EASY. If you are over sixteen years old, simply fill out an application for membership at the Customer Service counter, and make a share purchase. Your share purchase requirement is $110 at present. When you join the Co-op, you join the community of Hornby Island.
Your application will be reviewed by the Board of Directors and, upon approval you become a member/owner. Once you are a member, your number will be used to record your purchases for patronage purposes.
Subject to our Co-op bylaws, your shares are refundable
if you leave the co-op trading area (i.e. Hornby Island). Simply fill
out an application for withdrawal of equity and, upon approval by the
Board, your membership shares and any additional equity will be paid out
to you within six months.
Members aged 65 or over may apply to withdraw any amount of equity that has built up through patronage allocations in excess of the basic membership requirement.
The benefits of share purchase
Co-op membership is a good investment. The more you put in, the more you will get in return. Your support makes the Co-op successful, and you share in its success. Read more about the benefits of joining the Hornby Island Co-operative Association.
