Our all-volunteer Board of Directors is made of members who lend their expertise to help guide the direction and mission of the credit union. Most adult members in good standing may run for election for a three-year term on the board of directors. At least one seat typically comes up for election each year.
Meet the candidates running for our board of directors for the 2023-2026 term.

What does it take to be a board member?
A board member should possess the personal qualities that are needed to enable them to serve the Credit Union well. They should be honest, unselfish and act for the good of the Credit Union’s members. They should be interested in the Credit Union and sufficiently generous to give their own time and skills to the affairs of the Credit Union. They must have the ability to understand and must be able to think for themselves.
What are the benefits of being a board member?
You’ll be a representative voice for your fellow members and have a direct say in the overall direction of the credit union. You gain knowledge and experience about the running of a financial institution, strategic planning, and the credit union movement. It’s a great way to become part of a unique organization that provides financial services to thousands of likeminded individuals.
