What Happens at Our Annual Meeting?

What Happens at Our Annual Meeting?

When was the last time you attended Garden Savings' annual meeting? If your answer is "never" or "I can't remember," read on.

Garden Savings FCU invites every member to attend our—your—annual meeting. Why? Because all members are equal owners of the credit union, whether their deposits amount to $50 or $500,000.

For nearly a century, the credit union annual meeting has been an essential part of the credit union movement's democratic structure. Indeed, to attend such a meeting at a bank or other type of financial institution, you'd have to be a stockholder or large commercial customer.

Garden Savings' annual meeting is democracy in action. It's an occasion for management and elected officials to report to you, our owners. And it's an opportunity for you to raise concerns and ask questions. Here, you'll learn more about the credit union's financial position, products and services, current business issues, and future goals. You'll be able to meet face-to-face the people—professionals and volunteers—who run your credit union.

How is the credit union different from other financial institutions? Is the credit union launching new products or services? Is the organization facing special challenges? Find out at the annual meeting. There's no better time to evaluate the financial condition of your credit union and learn more about how you and fellow members save and borrow together.

When members actively participate and share ideas, the entire credit union benefits. Without member input, credit union leaders could only guess what owners like you want from their financial institution. And when you attend the Garden Savings FCU annual meeting, chances are you'll leave with a better understanding of its purpose and goals, and be better prepared to face today's many financial challenges.

 

We are excited to announce that our annual meeting is approaching, and we can’t wait to share more details with you soon! Before March of next year, we will be sending out detailed information about the event, including how members can RSVP and make the most of this wonderful opportunity to engage with our credit union community. Rest assured, all pertinent details will also be promptly posted on our website, ensuring that you stay informed every step of the way.
