   Our Friday morning education event will feature George Hofheimer, director of research for the Filene Research Institute. The future of credit unions will continue to be shaped by great innovations from the next generation of credit union leaders responding to the needs and wants of members. This interactive session will explore various aspects of innovative strategies for the future.

This year our keynote speaker on Saturday will be Gigi Hyland, NCUA board member. Her presentation on the state of the credit union industry will be followed by our annual business meeting.

 


   There may even be a chance to meet with Governor Ruth Ann Minner.

    Fellowship activities this year include the Friday evening dinner-dance with a repeat performance by the David Christopher Orchestra and the popular Saturday afternoon crab feast.



   Registration materials have been mailed to all credit union CEOs. You can also find more information on the League website, www.dcul.org.
