The CU Scoop - BarCamp Potential (Ep. 5)
Tuesday, April 15th, 2008Thanks for checking out this episode of BanktasticTV’s “The CU Scoop” featuring Mark McSpadden. Here are some important notes about this episode:
BarCampBankNewEngland
BarCampBankNewEngland was held on April 5th, 2008 in New Hampshire. There was a ton of really great coverage was posted online for those who couldn’t attend to check out. BarCampBankNewEngland was held at the America’s Credit Union Museum. See? BarCampBanks aren’t JUST for banks at all!
BarCampBankDallas
Speaking of BarCampBanks, we’re going to hold a BarCampBankDallas on June 21-22 in the Dallas area. We encourage all credit union people who want to attend to come be a part of BarCampBankDallas! BanktasticTV’s very own Brad Garland & Mark McSpadden will be in attendance! It’s going to be great, and we hope to see you there!
Christian Mullins’ Blog
Mark stumbled across Christian Mullins’ blog, which will soon be the CU Potential website. Christian currently keeps his readers up-to-date with information that you’d be pressed to find anywhere else. He keeps daily tabs on news including information on crimes related to CUs. We highly suggest you keep an eye on his blog, and while you’re at it, check out his 4-part series on the anatomy of a merger.
