About this location

A few stories people tell about this place

1. One morning, a delivery driver asked curiously: ‘Why does the same old lady always stand in front of Idaho Central Credit Union with her umbrella?’ She smiles and waves as he drives by every day, never saying a word. One foggy afternoon, she forgets her umbrella at home—and no one bats an eye.

2. Every weekday afternoon, as employees were leaving Idaho Central Credit Union, they began noticing something peculiar. A faint humming sound would start right after closing time, growing louder and more persistent until it seemed like someone was playing an invisible violin outside. One day, a delivery driver mentioned hearing the same music while dropping off packages late in the evening. Soon enough, everyone in town started tuning in during their coffee breaks. It turned out to be just an old radio left on by a neighbor who loved classical music. The humming became a friendly local legend—everyone knew exactly what to do when they heard that tune: grab some snacks and enjoy the show together.

3. Every morning around eight o’clock, an elderly gentleman would arrive at Idaho Central Credit Union. Without fail, he’d walk up to the reception desk and ask for a pen. The staff never questioned it until one day, the pen he requested had a mysterious note inside. After opening the pen, everyone in the office saw only his familiar scrawl: ‘Please return this pen to Mr. Johnson’s desk.’ Turned out, it was just a friendly neighborhood prankster who enjoyed watching people scramble.

4. One day, a customer exclaimed in surprise: ‘Who keeps moving my car?’ It turned out that Idaho’s friendly tellers had been gently rolling his car into the empty spots closest to the entrance. The regular was touched by their small act of kindness and never missed a chance to thank them personally.
