Our Partner, Eclipse Brand Builders

In June 2021, Oklahoma Community partnered with Eclipse Brand Builders of Johns Creek, Georgia, to design and facilitate a full rebrand that realigned its commitment and focus on the growing community it serves. The rebrand not only honors the credit union’s rich 50-year history, it is also in line with the board’s vision of continual improvement.

For the design and construction of its new branch office, Oklahoma Community once again partnered with Eclipse Brand Builders. Eclipse’s people-oriented collaboration style has resulted in a decision-making process that has prioritized and highlighted Oklahoma Community’s member-focused goals and values. The New West Stillwater branch at 1811 S. Sangre Road, Stillwater OK 74074 opened on January 25, 2023 with two drive-thru lanes and an ATM and Night Drop Box in Lane 1. The West branch features three full-time and two part-time Members Services Representatives and a Loan Officer on site. They have Saturday lobby hours to serve our Members. This West branch will be a great alternative for Members to visit during the remodeling of our McElroy location.

Eclipse was also commissioned to handle the remodeling of Oklahoma Community’s Main Location at 311 E. McElroy Road, Stillwater OK 74075. The planning stages for the remodel began even before the West Branch opened.  Building & city permits have been obtained and construction began on March 13, 2023 with the first phase of the remodel plan. The drive-thru will be moving from the South side of the building to the East side and a build-out to include additional office space will be taking place on the South side of the building.  Eclipse, along with credit union management will be overseeing the remodeling project.

“Our relationship with Eclipse started with our rebranding, and we’ve had an equally great experience through the design process of this new branch,” says Daniel Thrasher, President/CEO of Oklahoma Community CU. “Eclipse knows how much we value our members and understands our mission to enhance their financial well-being. This location was designed with member experience in mind and will help us introduce Oklahoma Community to future members in western Stillwater.”

Thrasher also reiterated: “Eclipse did an outstanding job on serving our Members needs with the design, build and opening of our West Stillwater location. We built this partnership with Eclipse, so everyone will see the same look and feel when you visit any Oklahoma Community Credit Union branch. We look forward to the next step in the growth of the credit union. The remodeling of our 20 year old building just east of Main Street on McElroy is set to begin in March 2023.”
