Bay Federal Credit Union

We are excited to announce that we raised nearly $11,000 towards the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary Foundation through a special promotion last summer! We donated $5 for each member that switched from paper statements to eStatements between July 1 and August 31. Nearly 2,000 members made the switch! Thank you for your help to reduce the impact on the environment and help protect our beautiful coastline of the Monterey Bay! For more information on eStatements, visit www.bayfed.com/eStatements. #CUDifference

#FlashbackFridays One of our favorite traditions at BayFed is our Ugly Holiday Sweater contest at our annual Holiday All Staff Celebration. This year, we are keeping the tradition live by bringing the contest virtual next week! How are you adjusting your holiday celebrations to be virtual this year? #InThisTogether

From all of us at Bay Federal, we hope you and your families have a wonderful and safe Halloween! We can't wait to have you back in our branches for our Halloween Celebration in 2021! #BayFedFamily #HappyHalloween

Our final day of our Spirit Week was our Halloween Celebration! We love the creativity of all of our team members! #BayFedFamily #HappyHalloween

Today's Spirit Week theme was "Throwback Thursday!" Our team members dressed up in everything from 1920's flapper fashions to 1990's grunge! #BayFedFamily #HalloweenWeek #TBT

Day 3 of our special Spirit Week was all about having fun for Wacky Wednesday! Our team members dressed up in funny clothes, crazy hair, fun accessories, and even some pets got involved! We'll continue to share our Spirit Week photos leading up to Halloween. #BayFedFamily

Day 2 of our special Spirit Week leading up to Halloween was "Tourist Tuesday." Even though we aren't able to travel in 2020 like we used to, our team members had fun pretending like we were tourists on our dream vacation! We'll have a different themed day each day this week and will share it with you! #BayFedFamily #HappyHalloween

We are celebrating a special "Spirit Week" this week leading up to Halloween with our employees! We will have special themed dress code days each day this week. Today's day is "Fall and Halloween Colors Day." We will share photos each day this week as the holiday approaches! #BayFedFamily #HappyHalloween

#FlashbackFridays Halloween is Bay Federal's unofficial holiday, and since our celebration will look different this year due to the pandemic, we thought we'd share some of our favorite photos from last year! #happyhalloween

We had a special photo challenge with our employees, where we asked them to submit their favorite photo that they had taken. We had no idea we had such talented photographers in our organization! Our winning photo was taken by Kelly, our Home Loan Administrator, taken at Four Mile Beach in Santa Cruz. We wanted to share the photo with you all as well! #BayFedFamily

Disappointed that COVID-19 is changing how Halloween can be celebrated this year? You are not alone!
