When Reedy started with the credit union, it had only $15 million in assets and since has grown to over $430 million in assets. The membership has more than doubled from 17,039 to 40,000+ over the 19 years he has been president. Reedy has been
instrumental in opening 7 branches, including entering new markets such as Missouri. When he took over as president, the credit union had 38 employees and now has over 175 total employees.

When considering new programs or products, Reedy's first question is always, "How does this benefit or affect our members?" He strives to keep our loan rates low and savings rates as some of the highest in our market. He is known for making sure members come first while maintaining a sound financial institution.

Reedy continually encourages staff to be involved in the community and the local credit union chapter. Over the past year, OCCU has poured more than $75,000 into the surrounding communities through fundraisers, sponsorships and donations. Employees have dedicated more than 500 hours to thecommunity events. These charitable endeavors show how important credit
unions are to their local communities.
