Hospital playground dedications, the sponsorship of political panel events and casual meetings with legislators and delegates are on tap for CUNA and its Florida and North Carolina leagues as they work to promote credit unions and industry issues during the national Republican and Democratic conventions.
Topping the list of events will be the dedication of hospital playground improvement projects in the two host cities, the culmination of CUNA's convention "leave-behind" projects, which began in 2000. In St. Petersburg, Fla., located near Tampa where the Republican National Convention will take place, CUNA and the League of Southeastern Credit Unions chose to retrofit a playground at All Children's Hospital. A ribbon-cutting ceremony featuring credit union dignitaries and yet-to-be-named VIPs is scheduled for Aug. 29.
The project includes a sensory garden for children in rehab and all access equipment so children with special needs can play, said Mike Bridges, vice president, marketing and communications for the league.
