The $180 million Service 1st Federal Credit Union of Danville, Pa. is merging the struggling $1.8 million Pennsylvania Grange FCU of Mifflintown effective Oct. 1.

Service 1st explained that Pennsylvania Grange CU approached Service 1st last May because PGCU wanted to offer a broader range of online services and because of "the increasing and overwhelming regulatory burdens faced by small credit unions."
