Altepeter, Freeborn and Hale
Elected by Acclamation
Newly elected CUES directors will take office in November.
July 16, 2007
Three
candidates were nominated for three open seats on the CUES Board of Directors
during a June 5 special conference call meeting of the nominating committee:
- Incumbent
Carla Altepeter, CCE, president/CEO of $325 million Citizens First Credit
Union, Oshkosh,
Wis.;
- Incumbent
Michael Hale, president/CEO of $768 million Andrews Federal Credit Union, Suitland,
Md.;
and
- Incumbent
Teresa Y. Freeborn, president/CEO of $785 million Xerox Federal Credit
Union, El Segundo,
Calif.
When no nominations by petition were received by the
deadline, July 9 this year, the three were elected by acclamation to the three
open board seats, as provided by the CUES bylaws.
Altepeter has already completed a three-year term on the
CUES Board. Hale was appointed to the board to complete the term of then
Director and Past Chairman Gary Irvin, CCUE, CCE, who resigned in November 2006
to focus on his work as president/CEO of $993 million FORUM Credit Union, Indianapolis.
Freeborn was appointed to the board in June to complete the term of Rose Bartolomucci. Formerly president/CEO of $62 million Reward One Credit
Union, Brook Park, Ohio, Bartolomucci is now the Deputy Superintendent of
Credit Unions for the State of Ohio.
"We
welcome back the positive leadership of Carla and Michael, and look forward to
Teresa's first full term," said Carol Humenick, CCE, SVP/community/government
affairs at $1 billion Citadel Federal Credit
Union, Thorndale, Pa., and chairman of the CUES Board of Directors.
The newly elected directors will take office and
CUES' 2007-2008 board officers will be elected after the CUES Annual Business
Meeting, to be held during CEO Network 2007, Nov. 4-7 in Key Biscayne, Fla.
