SUMMARY:RIBBON CUTTING - 9/13/2024 @ 2pm Blaze Credit Union
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for a ribbon cutting celebration to welcome Blaze Credit Union to the Chamber and the community!  \n\n\n\nNearly 93 years ago\, as the Great Depression was at its height\, a small group of employees from the Minnesota Highway Department got together to support each other's financial goals\, conducting business out of a small metal cash box. This cooperative became Hiway Credit Union.\n\n \n\nJust a few years later in 1934\, and not far away\, Edgar Archer\, an employee of Midland Cooperative Oil Association\, sought a loan to pay his debts. After being repeatedly turned down\, he talked to six of his coworkers and decided\, Why not start a credit union?  Twin City Co-ops Credit Union was born and later became SPIRE Credit Union in 2008.\n\n \n\nAs both credit unions continued to grow and thrive\, they joined forces in 2024 to become Blaze Credit Union. Today\, Blaze boasts 27 branch locations\, over 250\,000 members and is Minnesota's fourth-largest credit union.
