Ascentra Credit Union, 1800 Brady St. Davenport, IA will host a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony on Monday, August 24^th at 4pm to celebrate the completion of their new location.

Work began on the 3,400 square ft. structure in October 2014 and features a unique, modern design that has beautified the landscape and enhanced pedestrian access to the corner in the Hilltop Campus Village.

This brand new location will replace the nearby branch Ascentra merged with in 2013 and is located within walking distance from St. Ambrose University and Palmer College of Chiropractic.  The branch will provide much needed access to financial services for students and area residents such as Co-op Shared Branching – which allows credit union members to establish membership and use a nationwide network of over 5,000 credit union branches to conduct business as if they were at Ascentra.

"We're very excited to relocate our office to this new full service branch at a much more visible location," Ascentra Credit Union President & CEO Dale Owen says. "We look forward to further economic development in the Hilltop and playing a major role in further revitalization of the area.  We've been very pleased to work with the city staff, Mayor, City Council, the Design Review Board and the Hilltop Campus Village to help bring this project to completion."

The ribbon cutting will kick off a week-long celebration that allows people to stop by and register for a chance to win a 40" HDTV, a Go-Pro camera, Beats by Dr. Dre headphones, and a Fitbit workout band. A special social media Pay it Forward: Cash Stash will allow people to win cash by following clues on Ascentra’s Facebook and Twitter pages.
