Notices are being sent out to members of the Great Bend Coop and the Pawnee County Coop that annual meetings planned for later this month have been postponed. 

“With our members’ best interests and health in mind, the Great Bend Co-op has decided to postpone our 61st Annual Meeting (originally set for March 30th) to a later date,” a notice on the organization’s facebook page states. “ The new date is yet to be determined. Patronage checks will still be mailed out on Monday, March 30. Thank you for understanding as we do our part to help keep our members and communities safe from the spread of Covid-19 as much as possible.”
