Credit Union employees braved the chilly morning of April 4th, 2017 to volunteer for Alaska Airlines annual community event – Aviation Day.

This year marks the ninth year of Alaska’s Aviation Day in Seattle and Portland. In Seattle, more than 1,200 students checked out aircraft ranging from an Alaska Airlines 737 to a U.S. Navy EF-18 Growler, tested out their maintenance skills with Alaska Airlines mechanics, practiced preflight checks with pilots, discussed aircraft design with Boeing engineers, and explored rocketry with Blue Origin.

The Credit Union staff enjoyed seeing familiar faces at the event and working alongside many of our awesome members! We are thankful for Alaska for letting us take part in this impactful event for the youth in our community.
