Your Credit Union offers a
full array of savings programs.

Share Accounts are credit union savings accounts where dividends are paid monthly on the average daily balance. You still have full access to the balance. To remain a member and have access to our other services, a $5 share account balance is required.

USA PATRIOT Act- Important information about procedures for opening a new account:
         * To help the government fight the funding of terrorism and money laundering activities, Federal law requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify, and record information that identifies each person who opens an account.
         * What this means for you: When you open an account, we will ask for your name, address, date of birth, and other information that will allow us to identify you.  We may also ask to see your driver's license or other identifying documents.

Club Accounts allow you to save time and money for any reason in a separate account. You decide how much and how often. The Club Accounts offered are:  Holiday, All-purpose, Tax and Vacation.

Share Certificates (known elsewhere as CDs) allow you to earn a higher rate of interest. It is a great way to increase your earnings! There are different options for changing needs:

• Terms of Certificate - From 6 months to 5 years 
• Use of monthly interest payment

Money Market Share Accounts are a low activity, higher yield share account that has a tiered dividend rate structure to help meet the needs of all members.

Individual Retirement Accounts (IRAs) help you to save toward your future retirement.

Traditional IRAs are tax deferred and certain deposits may be tax deductable (Check with your tax advisor).

Roth IRA is a non-deductable retirement planning option that is funded solely by after-tax dollars and offers the possibility of tax-free earnings. The Roth IRA allows for tax-free distributions if used for a qualified purpose, such as being used for a first-time home purchase, or for reasons such as death, being over age 59 1/2, or if you become disabled.

Coverdell Education Savings Account is a custodial or trust account with a specified purpose for the funds. It is intended to exclusively provide funds for the higher education expenses of a child. The deposit limit is $2000 per year. It also offers the possibility of tax-free withdrawels.
