WCUL 007 Part Deux

Travel 8 Comments

I’m finally home after the large flying debacle at HorizonWCUL 007 went pretty well this year.  Probably somewhere over 100 exhibitors and lots of credit union participants.  It is great to see that many credit unions in one place together!

I went to a few seasons, the first being from Elaine Whitton at Advanced Reporting, one of our CUSO’s that does employment and tenant screening.  I also sat through Brent and Trey from Trabian and The Waz’s session on social media on Thursday afternoon.  It’s always refreshing watching credit union execs react when they learn how Second Life really works.  Sheri from Verity was also there and makes an awesome example of a CU blogging.

Overall, it was a great time and I can’t wait to get back to it next year!

    I, too, enjoyed 007. The social media presentations were great. Not ALL credit union execs were surprised by Second Life. I was struck by Ginny’s work with UFirst CU. Sets a high standard for small CUs. I think I’m going to try something similar with Generations CU board and members. Still in the early definition/design stage.
