PAYMENT OF ASPIN INVOICES: Thank you to all members for your timely payment of ASPIN invoices. In order for your district to earn the most interest possible in the ASPIN Holding Fund, it is important that ASPIN is paid on a bi-weekly basis. We have a full time accounting position this year. We are invoicing our members and paying Shamrock Foods weekly. We have a collections procedure in place to help Mohave and our members. If you have any questions regarding invoicing, please contact Steven Gord, our ASPIN Invoice Specialist.

NOI REMINDER: It is very important that each of you that are participating in the Net-Off Invoice program this year monitor your balances on the K12 website. Many of our members are already out of bank. As you know, once the bank has been depleted, your district will be charged the “commercial” price for items ordered. It is also very important that you contact your broker to be sure the program is established properly for your district.

RAINBOW PRODUCE PRICES: Pricing for this week is included as an attachment to this update.

SHAMROCK PRODUCE PRICES: Shamrock produce pricing is effective from Thursday to Thursday. Please note the dates on the pricing attached with this update.
