Community Events
Members Advantage and River Valley have been involved in many community events over the years. We look forward to a post-COVID world where we can get back out as 802 Credit Union.
October 2020 – MACCU’s Springfield team was on site and handed out over 400 bags of candy at the Springfield High School Trunk or Treat. It was a chilly but sunny day for this drive-through event with a great turnout.
July 2020 – MACCU was the main sponsor at Claremont Speedway for a night at the tracks. A packed house was treated to MACCU swag bags at our dedicated table and 200 coupons were handed out for free food.
