The winning band will receive a cash prize and a chance to perform at a regional Battle of the Bands competition. The event will cost $5 per person to watch the competition and full use of Splash City.� The Dash n Splash event will feature a 5K run/walk around Eastport Plaza in Collinsville and will end with a private party, dinner and music at Splash City.

Scott Credit Union Community Relations Representative Jennifer Riebold presented the $2,000 check to CARD Executive Director Terry Wilson.� "This is another opportunity for us to support our youth and to help promote fun and safe activities for them," Riebold said. "We feel that it is important that we do what we can to help support events like this in the community."
Scott Credit Union has made giving back to its communities a major priority. The local credit union contributed about $275,000 and its employees volunteered more than 2,300 hours to a variety of local civic efforts throughout the region in 2012.� "We realize that without our members and the communities in which we serve, we would not exist as a financial alternative," Riebold noted. "Supporting our communities is very important to us." The credit union has increased its community involvement in the past few years while also increasing its efforts to educate consumers of the value of doing their financial business with a not-for-profit credit union.� "We really want people in the area to know more about the value of doing business with a credit union," she added. "That is why we have really focused our time on educating area residents about Scott Credit Union. One of the big ways weve done that is through our community involvement."
