Pueblo West, Colorado
Minnequa Works Credit Union proudly marked a major milestone with the Grand Opening of its newest branch location in Pueblo West on Wednesday, May 21st. The event welcomed over 500 community members for a celebration that highlighted the Credit Union’s commitment to being The Local Difference.
Partnering with the Pueblo West Chamber of Commerce, the evening featured an official ribbon cutting ceremony that underscored the collaboration between Minnequa Works and the growing Pueblo West community. The festivities didn’t stop there—local favorites and next-door neighbors, Shiver and Shake, handed out complimentary ice cream sundaes and shaved ice, while guests also enjoyed pizza and other treats provided by fellow local businesses located near the new branch.
“This Grand Opening is about more than a new building—it’s about expanding our promise to serve the people of Southern Colorado,” said Nathan Cape, CEO of Minnequa Works Credit Union. “Pueblo West is a vibrant community of over 30,000 residents, and we’re thrilled to now have a presence here to offer convenient, personalized financial services.”
This marks the second new branch opening in just eight months for Minnequa Works, bringing the total number of branches to five across the region. The new Pueblo West branch is designed to provide a modern, member-focused experience, with a sleek interior layout, personalized service areas, and a 24/7 walk-up ATM to ensure access to cash and account services around the clock.
The Grand Opening demonstrated the heart of Minnequa Works’ mission—to serve not just as a financial institution, but as a committed community partner. By incorporating local businesses and engaging with hundreds of residents, the celebration was a testament to how Minnequa Works continues to invest in and uplift the communities it calls home.
