The dues of this Association are $10.00 per year per member. If you are 85 and over your dues are free! You must fill out and return a Dues Notice form even though your dues are free! Membership is open to all Lancaster plant retirees, salaried or hourly, their spouse or the surviving spouse of the deceased retiree. An adult companion can be a “Plus One” for a single retiree or a surviving spouse. There may be (2) two members per retiree or surviving spouse (retiree and one or surviving spouse and one). People who do not pay the required dues or are age 85 and older and do not return a completed Dues Notice will not have a vote or voice at any Association business meeting and will not be invited to special events. WK Kellogg Co. gives us forty (40) dollars per paid member to help offset costs of the Association. WK Kellogg will not pay the forty (40) dollars for people who don’t pay their dues or fail to return a completed Dues Notice for those 85 and older, so our Treasurer receives them by the due date. This means our Treasurer must receive your payment on or before November 30, 2026! If your payment is not received on or before November 30, 2026, the Association won’t have the money to support your special event activity so you will have to pay full price for the picnic and Holiday event, or pay $10 dues plus the $40 WK Kellogg contribution for a total of $50 and $0 dues plus $40 WK Kellogg contribution for a total of $40 for those 85 and older. Please pay dues and return a completed Dues Notice form by November 30, 2026

The Lancaster Kellogg Retirees Association’s purpose is: A. To provide the retirees with meal and meeting opportunities. B. Allow the retirees to hear general interest speakers. C. To provide the retirees with an occasional special event. D. Have the retirees sponsor, host and/or participate in programs and activities that promote the community well-being. Some of the things that we do to accomplish this is every year we sponsor needy senior citizens through the Salvation Army’s “adopt a senior” program. We also try to mainly have 501c3 speakers for our meetings and we always give them a donation and take a collection. Twice a year we have special events which are for members only. In May, we have our picnic and have entertainment, Product handout and door prizes. At the end of the year, we go to the Dutch Apple Dinner Theatre to have dinner and see a show. All Lancaster Kellogg employees are welcome to come to any of our ”regular” meetings, pre- and post-retirement, to see what we are all about without having to join first. Only members are invited to the special events or are allowed to vote on any issues concerning the Association.
