Expand Your Social Circle at Event for Younger Credit Union Employees This July!


Younger credit union professionals from both the Alex Ferguson and York Chapter of Credit Unions have an incredible opportunity to come together and gain valuable insight into advancing a career in our industry at the end of July, and our League hopes you will join us! On Thursday, July 25 at PeoplesChoice CU in Saco, the chapters will host a panel discussion and networking social hour to allow credit union professionals under the age of 40 to ask questions, play games, share aspirations, and discuss issues being faced at your credit unions. 

The panel will be moderated by Jake Holmes, the League’s Director of Outreach & Financial Education, and will feature Alex Ferguson and York Chapter Presidents/CEOs. They will share advice on how to grow your credit union career and what the path looked like for them to get where they are now. Attendees can also participate in a question-and-answer portion at the end of the panel. We strongly encourage you to learn from some of our industry’s veterans by coming prepared with a question or two you’d like to ask the panelists.

Following the panel discussion, attendees will engage in a networking hour, allowing people to share stories, meet like-minded peers, grow their professional circles, and connect about similar goals. Additionally, attendees will be able to utilize the ample fun games and activities PeoplesChoice CU has to offer, including shuffleboard, foosball, a golf simulator, and more! Food and drinks will be provided.  

The event is free to attend and will take place from 5:00 pm – 7:00 pm at 23 Industrial Park Road in Saco. Registration is required. Please visit the League’s website to register if you plan to attend. 

We hope you are a member of our Young Professionals Network (YPN), but if not, we invite you to come see how great it is to collaborate in this way! If you enjoy the event, we hope you will consider joining the Network for access to other statewide initiatives.
