The holiday season is a time for joy, celebration and—unfortunately—an increase in fraud. Scammers often target people when they’re busy with holiday shopping and festivities, using tactics like spam links, robocalls and fake package notifications. At Glacier Hills Credit Union, we want to help you stay protected from holiday fraud.
Here are a few things to look out for:
- Spam Links: Be wary of email deals that seem too good to be true. Scammers often send fake holiday offers with links that can steal your personal information. Always check the sender’s email address and avoid clicking on unfamiliar links.
- Spam Texts: Be cautious of text messages from unknown numbers offering deals or asking for personal information. Legitimate companies won’t request sensitive details this way. Stay vigilant, trust your instincts and remember: If something doesn’t feel right, it probably isn’t.
- Robocalls: If you receive a call claiming you’ve won a prize or need to provide payment information, it’s likely a scam. Don’t give out personal details over the phone, especially to unsolicited callers.
- Fake Package Notifications: If you receive a text or email saying your package is delayed or undeliverable, double-check before clicking any links. Scammers use this trick to install malware or steal login credentials.
Glacier Hills is here to help you stay safe and secure this holiday season! And remember, you can always contact us to report something related to your account.

Supporting our local business heroes
At Glacier Hills, we’re committed to helping local businesses thrive, which is why we’re excited to announce that Alpine Soap Company (owned by Lexi Bullis) has been awarded the Community First Accelerate Grant for Small Businesses!
Lexi isn’t just a local entrepreneur—she’s also an athlete on the US Snowboard Racing Team, with big dreams of competing in the 2026 Olympic Games. She created Alpine Soap Company to help fund her snowboarding career, with 100% of the proceeds going toward her athletic journey.
This grant, made possible through our partnership with FHLBank Chicago, will allow Lexi to purchase new equipment to expand her soap-making business. As her production grows, so will her ability to support both her small business and her athletic dreams.
We’re proud to support Lexi as she continues to represent our community on the global stage, and we can’t wait to see what’s next for Alpine Soap Company!

Your home, your future: Why a 20-year fixed rate could be the perfect fit.
Buying a home is one of the biggest decisions most of us will ever make. It’s not just about finding the right house—it’s about securing a...
Buying a home is one of the biggest decisions most of us will ever make. It’s not just about finding the right house—it’s about securing a mortgage that sets you up for long-term success. If you’ve been thinking about buying or refinancing, now might be the right time to consider a 20-year fixed-rate mortgage.
Why 20 years? A 30-year mortgage is common, but a 20-year term offers unique advantages. It allows you to build equity in your home faster and pay significantly less interest over time. In fact, at Glacier Hills, we’re currently offering 4.90% APR¹ on a 20-year fixed-rate mortgage—making it an ideal balance between affordable monthly payments and long-term savings.
Plus, a fixed rate means peace of mind. You’ll have predictable monthly payments for the life of the loan, giving you stability even in times of economic uncertainty.
Homeownership is about more than just having a place to live; it’s about investing in your future. With a shorter mortgage term and a competitive interest rate, you can make that future happen sooner. When you’re ready, Glacier Hills is here to help you every step of the way.
¹ APR = Annual Percentage Rate. All rates are subject to change and are based on credit. Up to 80% Loan-to-Value (LTV). Additional rates and terms are available. Closing costs will vary. Payment example $6.60 per $1,0000 borrowed. Actual payments will be higher with taxes, property insurance, and, if applicable, private mortgage insurance. Property insurance required. Flood insurance may be required. Owner-occupied, Wisconsin only. Equal Housing Opportunity.

We’re thrilled to share an update on our upcoming Jackson branch! The dry fall weather has allowed our crews to make great progress. The building is really taking shape, and soon the exterior will be fully enclosed so work can begin on the interior finishes. Although we can’t set an exact opening date yet, we’re aiming for a January 2025 opening.
You might have noticed some new faces at our West Bend and Hartford locations recently. That’s because we’re training staff in preparation for the new branch. Jackson will feature a fantastic blend of familiar, experienced employees and enthusiastic new team members, all ready to serve you.
In addition to our welcoming staff, the Jackson branch will offer a modern teller pod layout, similar to what you’ve seen at our Hartford and Fond du Lac locations. We’re also excited to provide convenient services like self-service coin machines and video teller ATMs, available both in the lobby and at the drive-up.
