For 15 consecutive years, starting in 2008 when the two state leagues merged, your Dakota Credit Union Association has used “Annual Summit” to describe our signature event and the largest annual gathering of Dakota Credit Unions.
While “Summit” has become part of our credit union vernacular here in our region, let’s just take a minute to revisit what the event encompasses!
Merriam-Webster defines Summit as “top, apex, especially the highest point, peak.” Synonyms include conference, important meeting, discussion, dialogue, and consultation. No doubt, “Annual Summit” is the appropriate name and description!
The Annual Summit has something for EVERYONE interested in expanding their industry skills and knowledge. This is your chance to gain insights on all things credit union from your Dakota Credit Union Association. You do not want to miss the incredible lineup of speakers that we have engaged for you, with areas of expertise ranging from credit union economics, compliance concerns, and fraud prevention, as well as leadership development and NCUA hot topics! See your peers recognized for their achievements during the awards banquet and take part in our annual business meeting. We guarantee you will leave feeling even more energized and excited about the credit union movement!
