River Country Co-op is happy to announce that we entered into a franchise agreement with Holiday StationStores for our Lake Elmo location.  The co-op has operated the site since 2000 and will continue to own and operate the site.  The conversion was completed in early February and we look forward to a long relationship with Holiday.  We hope all of our patrons in Washington County will stop in and take a look at our new look!
