ACU Newsletter: Summer 2025
What a Summer It’s Been!
As the season winds down, we’re looking back on an incredible few months filled with community, connection, and big milestones for ACU.
From the excitement of the ACU Car Sale to the smoky flavors at the Lacey South Sound Barbecue Rally, summer gave us plenty of reasons to celebrate together. We were proud to walk in the Tumwater Fourth of July Parade and honored to drive the Mayor of DuPont in the DuPont Fourth of July Parade – traditions that remind us how strong and vibrant our communities are.
Another summer 2025 highlight? Our Tumwater Branch is now open, and we can’t wait to officially celebrate with you at the Grand Opening! Stop by to see the new space, meet the team, and join in the festivities.
On the financial side, summer trends didn’t slow down. Many members took advantage of auto loan opportunities, explored savings options, and leaned into digital tools for quick, secure payments. Even as interest rates stayed on the higher side, smart planning and flexible solutions helped our members stay ahead. And remember – scammers don’t take vacations, so staying alert remains key.
Since 1954, ACU has grown and adapted to serve you better, and this summer was no exception. Thank you for being part of our journey. We can’t wait to keep the momentum going into fall and beyond!
Here’s to what’s next – see you soon!

In today’s digital age, social engineering scams are becoming increasingly sophisticated, preying on human psychology to trick individuals into divulging confidential information or parting with their hard-earned money. Let’s explore the common types of social engineering scams and learn how to spot them.
Phishing Scams
Phishing scams are the most prevalent form of social engineering attacks. They typically involve emails or websites that impersonate legitimate organizations, enticing you to provide sensitive information like passwords or bank details.
How to spot it?

Consolidate Your Credit Cards and Save!
Credit cards can be convenient for making purchases, but if we’re not careful, it’s easy to rack up high-interest debt. If you have multiple credit cards with high balances, it can be challenging to keep track of what you owe and when payments are due. That’s where debt consolidation comes in.
Consolidating your credit cards at a cheaper rate can help you save money and simplify your finances. Let’s discuss how debt consolidation works, why it can be beneficial, and how much money it can save you by using a credit card from America’s Credit Union…

Since 2000, America’s Credit Union has proudly hosted the Turkey Shoot at Eagle’s Pride Golf Course on Joint Base Lewis‑McChord – a tradition that raises vital funds for local service members and their families.
This year marks a milestone: our 25th Turkey Shoot! Thanks to your support, we’ve raised more than $600,000 to date through the ACU Foundation.
What’s in Store:
- 4‑person scramble format with on‑course fun
- Post‑round dinner, awards, and raffle
- A day of camaraderie, gratitude, and impact
Every dollar benefits service members and their families. And yes, golfing in November can be chilly – but that’s part of the tradition! It’s a small way to honor the challenges our soldiers face every day.
Join us on the course and be part of the legacy – November 7, 2025!
