HEATH/NEWARK, Ohio –Hopewell Federal Credit Union (HFCU) celebrated the Grand Opening of its newest office in Johnstown, Ohio.
The 2,100 square-foot building is the third office in HFCU’s portfolio. The building was constructed from April 2017 through October 2017 by the teams of Mark Caughenbaugh Construction, LLC and Phil Claggett, Ohio Architect with Northpoint Ohio Architecture. The grand opening celebration included ceremonial ribbon cutting, WCLT-T100 Big Thunder live broadcast, lobby tours throughout the day, light refreshments, giveaways and a special grand opening CD special.
Attendees of the event included Johnstown council members and government officials, representatives from the many vendors who helped construct the building, members of the HFCU Board of Directors, new and existing members, as well as the Johnstown Cheerleading squad.
The community of Johnstown, Ohio, situated on the far western edge of Licking County, is home to residents who may benefit from credit union services. Prior to Hopewell Federal’s arrival, members of this community needed to travel 11 miles to obtain credit union services. Hopewell is thrilled to close that lengthy gap and provide a full-service facility right in the heart of Johnstown. HFCU’s President and CEO said, “Today marks the culmination of an idea that began a few years ago as we considered bringing credit union services to members, and potential members in this area. We look forward to serving and rolling up our sleeves and becoming part of this great community.”
