TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — After more than 20 years of service Florida Credit Union League President/CEO Guy M. Hood is set to retire from the League in January 2009.

"Guy is an outstanding leader and is at the top of his game," said John Hirabayashi, FCUL board chairman. "Under his direction, the Florida Credit Union League has become one of the premier leagues in the country. I know he will do an outstanding job his final year leading the league and setting the stage for a smooth transition."

Hood began his tenure as FCUL president/CEO in 1988. Over his remarkable career, he has seen significant transitions in the credit union movement including the passing of the Credit Union Membership Access Act (H.R. 1151).
