COVID-19 Pandemic Notice

Out of an abundance of caution and for the health of our members and staff, we have made the difficult decision to temporarily close our branch lobbies to limit the potential spread of the COVID-19 virus beginning Wednesday, March 18, 2020 until further notice.  We will be open normal business hours and will serve our members through the drive-thru lanes and night deposits located at each branch, by phone, as well as with our wide variety of electronic services.  Transactions such as new accounts and loan closings will remain available and will be conducted by appointment only. 

We will continue to operate during our normal business hours and are fully staffed to ensure there is no disruption in service.  We will continue to monitor the COVID-19 situation closely and will provide our members with more information as it becomes available. 

We apologize for the inconvenience this may cause, but we feel this decision is in best interest of our members and employees.  Please be assured that you WILL continue to have access to your financial resources.  We are here working F.O.R. YOU!  Thank you for your understanding and flexibility as we travel through these uncertain times together.
