RALEIGH — Local Government Federal Credit Union (LGFCU) announced the addition of Spencer Alderman Patricia Sledge to its Central Piedmont Advisory Council, which Alexander, Iredell, Davie, Rowan and Cabarrus counties.

Alexander County Deputy Fire Garrett Huffman was also appointed to the council.

Huffman and Sledge will be part of LGFCU’s volunteer-driven initiative to educate people on the benefits of credit union membership and relay feedback to the board of directors regarding available/potentially available products and services, delivery of service, and member needs.

Advisory Council members, who represent the philosophical character of the credit union and contribute their time without compensation, function as LGFCU’s eyes and ears throughout the state, serving as liaisons between credit union members and non-members and LGFCU management.
