Dollar Dog Gets A Little Help From His Friends

Hello fellow Clubhouse members! I wanted to share a fun adventure I had at the end of last year - I was once again part of the Mechanicsburg Halloween parade!

AmeriChoice Federal Credit Union

Every year, AmeriChoice Federal Credit Union creates a float for me and my Dog Pound. I get to be the star, and all of my human friends wear dog masks. We all dance to the song "Who Let The Dogs Out." The float is always a huge hit, and everyone at the parade recognizes Dollar Dog and AmeriChoice.

I also wanted to share some pictures we took at the AmeriChoice York branch Grand Opening Celebration. As part of the festivities, Perrydell Dairy Farm was invited to participate. The Dairy Farm brought homemade chocolate milk and a baby calf. I got to pet the calf with my friends who were in attendance. It was lots of fun!

Meet My Friend Toni

Toni MontgomeryMy good friend Toni Montgomery, Community Relations Coordinator at AmeriChoice, has been busy designing activities to help attract younger members to the credit union along with her fellow AmeriChoice employees.

In fact, the Filene Research Institute recently named Toni as one of the group's initial "30 Under 30" Executives who develop products and services designed to attract younger members. As 2007 Credit Union Ambassador of Pennsylvania, Toni attended the National Youth Involvement Board (NYIB) conference in San Antonio as a representative of Pennsylvania credit unions.

As part of her day-to-day duties, Toni organizes and promotes youth clubs at AmeriChoice, including our Dollar Dog Kids ClubSM and programs for older students. Toni has also been instrumental in developing student-run branches at East Pennsboro High School and Central Pennsylvania College. She even teaches financial literacy classes, helping ninth grade students focus on cultivating life skills such as setting financial goals, creating budgets and learning about credit management. As you can see, Toni is a busy woman!

Last May, Toni was named Pennsylvania State Youth Ambassador by the Pennsylvania Credit Union Association. Way to go, Toni! We can all learn how to better attract and attain younger members at the credit union from examples such as hers.

Thank you for all your help, Toni, and thank you to all my friends who are reading and helping spread the credit union message!
