On the afternoon of Tuesday, June 26^th, NSWC Federal Credit Union and the Fredericksburg Regional Chamber of Commerce hosted a Building Dedication and Business After Hours for their new Massaponax Branch and Operations Center. Chamber officials Susan Spears and Stacy Horne stood alongside NSWC FCU CEO, Bruce Six, the entire NSWC FCU Board of Directors, Baskervill representatives, and Emerald Construction representatives for a brief ribbon cutting ceremony before opening the building for tours, gifts, a prize drawing, and refreshments. Just over 100 Credit Union members, local dignitaries, and community members were in attendance.
The new branch replaces the Southpoint branch just over 1 mile north of the new location. The Massaponax location is half the size at 1,300 square feet and features more conveniences like dual drive thru lanes, a self-service coin machine, and a drive up ATM. The branch also features an innovative new design and teller towers as opposed to a traditional teller line.
The operations center located in the back of the building allows for more IT opportunities than previously, brings the marketing department into one building rather than being spread across three locations, and provides a larger and more private space for the contact center, among other things.
