New Red Canoe Credit Union CEO—Klog 100.7 News

Red Canoe Credit Union has someone new in charge: Deidra Miner became president and CEO at the start of this month.

Red Canoe currently has 60,000 members and was founded in 1937 by Weyerhaeuser employees.
Miner is taking over for David Spaulding, who announced his retirement after a decade and a half in the position last month. He has been with Red Canoe for nearly 30 years. Under Spaulding’s leadership, the credit union doubled in size, growing to over a billion dollars in assets, including a merger with Cowlitz Credit Union in 2014.

Regarding his retirement, Spaulding said, “No one gets here alone. I am deeply grateful for the work of our dedicated staff, the loyalty of our members, and the support of our board of directors for their trust and collaboration over the years. Together, we have accomplished incredible things, and I am confident that Red Canoe will continue to thrive into the future.”

Miner came to Red Canoe in 2018 and was the chief operating officer prior to taking her current role. Red Canoe stated in their press release that she has “a proven track record of growth and strategic planning.” She has two decades of experience in the financial industry.

She thanked Spaulding for what he left her with, stating, “We are immensely grateful for Dave’s visionary leadership and the profound impact he has made on our credit union and the community at large.”
