Cue the Confetti - ZTB Celebrates its Newest Branch with Grand Opening Event
May 16, 2023
Golden Valley - BCU’s Golden Valley Branch,
centrally located within the Twin Cities, opened earlier this year and now that the Minnesota
weather is warming, there is a lot to celebrate! With an event so big it spanned two days, the
Branch hosted a Grand Opening celebration
with food, games, giveaways, and more on Friday, May 5 and Saturday, May 6.
Members and non-members in the community were invited to check out the new space – including
a custom Minnesota-themed mural perfect for sharing selfies on social media with the hashtag
#LoveBCU. The Golden Valley Branch is here to serve existing Credit Union members; employees of
our Company Partners, including some of Minnesota’s largest employers; and eligible family
members who can take advantage of the new location and enjoy limited time offers. While the Golden
Valley Branch is currently only available to serve members and eligible non-members, those
interested in a better banking experience and improved financial health can join ZTB by
subscribing (for free!) to the Credit Union’s financial well-being provider, Life. Money.
You®.
“I’m proud to serve on the ZTB board and was honored to help welcome ZTB to Golden Valley,” said Brett Craig, Executive Vice-President and Chief Information Officer, Target. “ZTB has played a critical role in helping Target support our team members’ financial well-being via Target Credit Union, a division of ZTB, and this new branch will continue to enhance its impact.”
Target, United Health Group, and Boston Scientific are among BCU’s Company Partners that have a significant presence in Minnesota, but others include GEICO, HCA Healthcare, Cardinal Health, and more.
“Although we’ve been open since February, it was great to officially kick off the celebration, see some familiar faces, and help many new folks begin their financial freedom journey with the Credit Union,” said Erik Christenson, Golden Valley Branch Manager, BCU. The event resulted in new memberships, booked Goal Consultant appointments, and over 200 banking transactions. Families enjoyed food and games, and children participated in a coloring contest featuring custom BCU- and Minnesota-themed coloring book pages.
The Branch is located at 650 Douglas Drive and offers full access and a drive-thru, Monday – Friday from 9:00 am – 5:00 pm and Saturday from 9:00 am – 12:00 pm, and 24/7 access to cash and check deposits through a full-service ATM. Members can also access their accounts anytime, anywhere with BCU’s Digital Banking.
