Member Shares

Each member must purchase membership shares of $20, making them part owners of the credit union. There are many privileges to being a shareholder of the credit union. You may vote on any of our by-law changes which are presented at the Annual General Meeting and vote for who you would like to see on the Board of Directors.  Plus, when we have a profitable year, we pay bonus interest on deposits and interest rebates on loans. No banks share profits with their clients, but we do!

Special Shares for New Members Under 21

Financial education is one of our top priorities. To encourage participation and early financial responsibility, the credit union issues $20 shares as a gift to each new member under the age of 21. This includes trust accounts opened for qualifying individuals by parents, grandparents or others. Click here to learn more about trust accounts.
