Sixteen employees of the Credit Union were
honored for their service on May 23 at Williams Country Club in

Truax said the business has made
significant progress despite the difficult economy. “First Choice
America has not only endured the volatility of
the economy but even managed growth and improved efficiency in these
challenging times.”
He told employees, “We’re built to last
because we have an exceptionally strong foundation represented by
you—a management and staff with enthusiasm, pride
and considerable skills. You are critical to our success. We deeply
appreciate how well you have been doing your jobs.”
Scott E. Winwood,
President and CEO, shared in presenting service awards to employees.
Among the achievements he mentioned were:
achieving the sixth consecutive superior rating for capital strength
and asset quality, and opening of the Medical
Park branch office upon completion of the Prime Financial merger.
“With all of your help, our Credit Union had
another very successful year and is well-positioned for the
future. I congratulate everyone on a job well done,” stated
Winwood.
