Peach State Federal Credit Union celebrates new branch in Young Harris with ribbon cutting ceremony

LAWRENCEVILLE, GA (September 22, 2021) — Peach State Federal Credit Union hosted a ribbon cutting ceremony to celebrate the grand opening of their new branch located at 693 Main Street in Young Harris. Local officials, credit union staff and community leaders were in attendance for the event.

The credit union’s original branch in Young Harris was located on Robinson Road. The newly renovated, full-service location on Main Street officially opened in August. The branch offers a 24-hour drive thru ATM to serve members and shared branching services for members of other credit unions. The hours of operation are Monday through Friday from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. and the branch will continue to be staffed by the same Peach State employees. The branch also features a community room where local art from the Creative Placemaking Collaborative will be displayed.

“We’re excited to offer this larger, more convenient branch to our members and we look forward to helping even more area residents with their financial needs,” said Peach State’s Executive Director of Retail Services, Crystal Schmidt. “The city of Young Harris welcomed us to the area when the Towns-Union Educators Federal Credit Union merged with Peach State in August 2018 and we look forward to welcoming everyone to this new location.”
