ASPA MEMBERS Stock Option: The ASPA Board of Directors recently approved the sale of membership stock to ASPA providers who are not shareholders. This action was taken to provide all ASPA members with an equal opportunity to share in patronage dividends. As an incentive to build our ownership base, New ASPA Owners will have their annual dues waved for 2 years for specialist and 3 years for PCP’s, plus annual dues going forward frozen at: PCP’s $300.00; Specialties $400.00; NP’s $250.00 and Other $200.00. Shares of ASPA stock are priced at their original cost of $1,000. ASPA Members can only own one share. Funds from the sale of ASPA stock will be used to support its work plan and attain goals. For more information, contact Connie at connie@aspa.firedrumhost.net or Karen at karen@aspa.firedrumhost.net.
