60 Years of Connection, Celebration, and Community at Park 

Park’s Annual Meeting wasn’t just an event — it was a celebration. On Thursday, February 12, 2026, members, community partners, board members, and staff came together to reflect on 2025, celebrate Park’s impact, and look ahead to 2026. 

It was energizing to see so many familiar faces in one room. Volunteers helped make the night run smoothly, from greeting guests to assisting with food, drinks, and raffle prizes. Our Photo Booth captured countless smiles, and of course, Parkie the Panda joined in on all the fun.  

On each table were copies of our 2025 Annual Report, which highlights more than numbers. It recaps a momentous year, including breaking ground on a new Fern Valley location, advocating for No Tax on Credit Unions, giving back to our neighbors through volunteerism, and providing financial opportunities and outreach to our communities like never before. 

CEO Jana Erny shared an inspiring look back at 60 years of Park’s impact and the momentum carrying us forward. As Kentucky’s largest CDFI, we serve underserved communities, and in 2025, our CDFI membership grew by 4,696. Every day, our team shows up in the communities we serve with bold compassion, inclusive excellence, and an unwavering belief in people. 

“You make it possible to invest back into all the communities that we serve across our footprint.” 

Board Chair Bobby Willoughby and Board Director Marvin King led official business and elections, while raffle drawings added extra excitement. The 50/50 Split the Pot raised $235 for the Park Community Credit Union Foundation, extending the impact beyond the event itself. Jana even kicked off the Foundation’s campaign to provide Technical School Scholarships with a live donation from the stage, encouraging everyone in the room to participate. 

Every attendee helped make the evening memorable, and we hope everyone left feeling connected, energized, and proud to be part of Park. 

With Valentine’s Day just around the corner, each guest left with a Park Valentine and a heart-shaped sucker — a simple but sweet reminder of the connections that make Park so special.  

Here’s to the people, the energy, and the momentum that will carry us forward for the next 60 years and beyond.
