CONSTRUCTION BEGINS FOR NEW SUMMIT CREDIT UNION BRANCH IN STOUGHTON
MADISON, Wis. — Summit Credit Union broke ground on a new, 3,100-square-foot branch in Stoughton on Oct. 29, 2013.
The new facility, located at 2105 McComb Rd., is expected to open in June, 2014.
“We already have a well-established membership base in Stoughton, and members have been asking for a branch in this community,” said Kim Sponem, CEO/president of Summit Credit Union. “We are excited to have a more convenient location for these members, and we also hope to serve members in nearby Oregon and McFarland.”
Summit has partnered with Madison-based Strang, Inc., to construct the full-service branch, which will include a welcoming lobby, drive-through teller area and a member service counter. Additionally, teller pods will replace traditional teller lines, providing a more welcoming environment conducive to member conversations.
Between six and eight employees — comprised of current staff from Summit’s other branches as well as new hires — will staff the new facility.
