Membership Requirement.

Posted by: |

If you are thinking of joining La Habra Children's Museum in order to then join this CU. Be aware that Museum membership is $80 at its lowest tier, should you be accepted at both fine institutions. I tried having another Association membership to get into a different CU (Sun something) and that Association (Brandywine Historical) was refusing all non-local applications.
