What is a
Co-op?
Simply put, a co-op is a business owned by the people who use it, and run for their benefit. Whether it’s products or services, co-ops are all about meeting the needs of their members.
Co-op Ownership.
Climbers become members—and owners—of the MN Climbing Co-op for a variety of reasons. A lot of people join to support a community-owned business that helps keep the local climbing scene thriving. You don’t have to be an owner to climb here, but there are definitely perks to being one!
Ownership Benefits.
As a Co-op member and owner, you get to vote for (or even run for) a spot on the board of directors and help shape the future of the Co-op. Plus, you’ll enjoy discounts and, in good years, patronage dividends. Members are passionate about helping this space succeed and supporting the community inside it.
