Note: These accounts are insured by the NCUA, which is a governmental agency and insures your accumulated deposits from your accounts up to $100,000.

Share Accounts (Savings accounts)

A regular share/savings account is opened by you when you join the credit union. Each deposit of $10.00 is a common share. Your savings are called "shares" because they represent shares of ownership. Think of it as a regular savings program. Dividends are paid quarterly (March 31st), (June 30th), (Sept 30th) and (Dec 31st) and are earned on shares based on the average daily balance of all ending day balances for the quarter. The rate is determined by the Board of Directors at the board meeting preceding the payment date.

NO MONTHLY SERVICE CHARGE…No need to worry about subtracting monthly service charges from your share draft account.

QUARTERLY DIVIDENDS…based on the average daily balance for the quarter.

PRE-AUTHORIZATION OF MONTHLY BILLS…Have your monthly bills automatically deducted from your draft account.

DIRECT DEPOSIT/PAYROLL DEDUCTION…Have your paycheck, social security check or military retirement check automatically deposited into your draft account.

FREE CHECKS FOR MEMBERS OVER 55... If you're a member age 55 or older you can become a Passport Club Member which will entitle you to free checks for your draft account.

BALANCING YOUR DRAFT ACCOUNT…It is essential to balance your draft account each month as you receive your statement. If you find a problem with your account, it is important to contact our office immediately. If you are not familiar with balancing a draft account, ask about the correct procedure.
