You know how great it is to belong to a credit union. You’re a part owner, not just a “customer” or worse, a number. You know that profits don’t go to stockholders, they’re returned to members in the form of lower and fewer fees and better rates on deposit and loan products. You are one of 186 million people worldwide who have chosen to put your money in a member-owned, not-for-profit credit union.

And on October 21, 2010, we celebrate you.

Since 1948, the third Thursday in October has been designated International Credit Union (ICU) Day, and ICU Day is supported by the World Council of Credit Unions (WOCCU) and CUNA, the Credit Union National Association, the premier trade association for credit unions in the US.

This year’s theme, “Local. Trusted. Serving you.”™ demonstrates all credit unions’ commitment to their membership and the communities they live and work in.

Please join us at all our branches on October 21 for refreshments and conversation!
