Blue Federal Credit Union opens second Fort Collins branch

FORT COLLINS — Blue Federal Credit Union will celebrate the opening of its newest branch in downtown Fort Collins, Oct. 8, with a grand-opening celebration from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

The Old Town branch is located at 136 W. Mountain Ave. Blue also operates a branch at 18 Boardwalk Drive in Fort Collins, with plans for a third branch on East Drake Road.

Blue’s Old Town location features a modern, non-traditional design that includes a large patio and community room that will be available for members and business partners to use for meetings, seminars and after-hours events.

A company press release said the branch was “imagined and designed to connect with the Fort Collins community, and Blue believes it can become more than a place for member-centric financial services and solutions. It can develop into a gathering place, a neighborhood hub for Blue members and the community alike to meet and celebrate Old Town’s unique culture. It can become a relaxed, inviting space to enjoy a cup of coffee, participate in an after-hours event, and be inspired by the work of local artists.”

Blue was formed in April 2016 through the merger of Cheyenne, Wyo.-based Warren Federal Credit Union and Broomfield-based Community Financial Credit Union.

Blue has more than $800 million in total assets and serves nearly 70,000 members at its full-service branches in Broomfield, Boulder, Fort Collins, Wellington and Wyoming.
