President and CEO John Lund stated, “I am happy and honored to report that 2016 was a successful year by every measure.”

Riverdale, Utah – (May 8, 2017) – America First Credit Union held its 78th annual meeting on Tuesday, April 18, 2017.

James Wendler will continue as Board Chairman, with Linda Carver as Vice Chair and Kenlon W. Reeve as Secretary.

Taking place in April, the America First annual meeting provides an opportunity to share the success and financial state of the organization, as well as giving the membership the ability to determine the credit union’s course of action by electing volunteers to serve on the Board of Directors. These dedicated and qualified individuals share their time, talents and efforts without compensation, making them part of America First’s unique cooperative, not-for-profit structure.

The annual event was once again streamed live via the credit union’s social media accounts for added engagement and conversations online.
