Joint Communiqué from Ladysmith & District Credit Union and Festival of Lights

Celebrating 80 Years of Community Spirit with a Reimagined Festival of Lights

This year, Ladysmith & District Credit Union (LDCU) proudly celebrates its 80th anniversary, marking decades of dedication to our community and its traditions—especially the beloved Festival of Lights. For nearly 20 years, LDCU has been the proud sponsor of the Festival's fireworks display, sharing in the joy and wonder that lights up the night for families and neighbors. Unfortunately, due to changes in fire and safety regulations, we will not be able to sponsor fireworks after the parade this year.

What our Members are saying

"...LDCU has earned our Trust and Loyalty. Staff have always done their best to accommodate our financial needs at any one moment in time with due diligence and caring in a way that both parties receive 'Value for Money'..."
