Details, Direction, and Disclosures
Welcome to Madison County Federal Credit Union’s Show and Tell Photo Contest – the contest that asks you to help us “capture the good” that has come to your life from being a member of Madison County Federal Credit Union.

So whether you’ve been a member for 20 years and have photos of yourself with your first piggy bank that you brought into the credit union to open your first savings account, standing by the first car you bought with an auto loan from us, pictures of your wedding day made possible with one of our wedding accounts and VISA credit card, or you’re a newer member who loves the simplicity and benefits that online banking, IDProtect and your debit card bring to your daily life – whatever it may be, we would love for you to share your story and pictures with us. Oh, and did we mention you or a charity of your choice could win $250*?!

The Details and Directions

• The images and stories collected will be used for branding, marketing and advertising purposes for the credit union (see The Disclosure information below for permission and other pertinent information)

• *Up to Four (4) member winners will be chosen from the Photo entries. One winner will be chosen by votes cast in the online photo pool.
