Southern

Federal getting new PTC digs

On Monday,

the Southern Federal Credit Union and Group VI Corporation celebrated

the groundbreaking of the credit union's new Class "A" office

building at the corner of Commerce Drive and Aberdeen Parkway in Peachtree

City's Westpark Office Park.

Group VI Corporation

was selected as the general contractor for the 8,800 square foot, two-story

brick building and will begin construction immediately. Group VI plans

to complete the facility in early 2003. The 6.5-acre site was purchased

from Peachtree Holdings, LLC.

The Southern

Federal Credit Union is a Fayetteville, Georgia-based credit union serving

over 25,000 members. Originally chartered in 1963 to serve employees of

the southern region of the Federal Aviation Administration, the Credit

Union now serves over 140 companies, associations, and governmental entities.

In addition

to the Peachtree City branch, the Credit Union also maintains offices

in Fayetteville, Hampton, Morrow, Griffin, and College Park.

The Peachtree

City branch was formed in 1998, to better serve those credit union members

living and working in the Peachtree City/Newnan areas.

Since that

time, numerous additional companies have been welcomed into the credit

union's field of membership, including Cooper Lighting, Hoshizaki America,

Inc., Lawson Mardon, Hella, Inc., Pathway Communities, Equistar Chemicals,

World Airways, the National Weather Service, Frank W. Cawood & Associates,

the Development Authority of Peachtree City, and Group VI, along with

many others.

While continuing

to provide a complete array of full-service financial products and services

to the employees of these groups, the new office will also feature a community

room, drive-up ATM, and three drive-thru lanes for added member convenience.

"Due to

the growth we've had in Peachtree City, a new and improved facility was

inevitable," said Ray Hull, president of the Southern Federal Credit

Union.

"This

is another example of how we strive to improve the level of service we

give our members," Hull continued.

"We hope

our members enjoy the new amenities this branch will offer; it has been

very exciting to be a part of this community, and we are pleased to be

able to bring this new project to Peachtree City."

Group VI, a

full-service construction, development and real estate firm headquartered

in Peachtree City, has completed numerous office, medical, industrial,

religious and commercial projects throughout the Southeast and currently

has active projects in Georgia, Florida and North Carolina.
