68TH ANNUAL MEETING

A CHANCE FOR US ALL TO COME TOGETHER AS MEMBERS

 

We would like to invite all of our members to the 68th Annual Meeting. Annual meetings play an important role in the overall governance of our credit union and we look forward to this event each year.

When you opened a savings account at FSFCU, you automatically became an owner, much like a shareholder of a corporation. The board’s responsibility is to oversee FSFCU and serve the membership with decisions that are based on the overall benefit and long-term direction of the credit union.
