COMMUNITY FIRST CREDIT UNION


From the earliest ideas of a marathon that would connect the communities of the Fox Cities, to 31 years of events and thousands of stories along the way, Community First Credit Union has been proud to be the title sponsor of the Community First Fox Cities Marathon presented by Miron Construction. 


“Community First” is more than a name. It’s a responsibility to positively impact the economic health, social well-being and quality of life where CFCU’s member-owners live and work. Community First employees have volunteered thousands of hours over the lifetime of the event, bringing their special member-focused service to every participant of every race. 


As a member-owned financial cooperative, coming together to support one another is not a new concept for Community First. Like its member-owners whose separate needs for financial services are met through the strength and interconnectedness of the cooperative – Community First has embraced the same cooperative spirit for the marathon, welcoming the engagement of Fox Cities businesses, participants, volunteers and spectators to make this event like none other. 


We are so grateful to Community First for their continued support, for helping us grow from a marathon to an event with a race for every pace and for celebrating the accomplishment of each participant side-by-side with us each year.
