EUGENE, Ore. -- SELCO Community Credit Union said it received more than 2,500 online votes and handed out $11,000 in cash prizes as it wrapped up its "Your Big Break" do-it-yourself commercial contest.
Depicting a young girl earning her first dollars at a lemonade stand was good for $5,000 and the first prize for members Marshall and Haley Roeman, the $815 million credit union said.
Second place of $3,500 went to Elliot Heine for his untitled video that compared credit unions and banks, and third place, a $1,500 prize, went to Dustin Dybevik of Dedo De Luna Productions for his "Can You Thank Your Bank?" video.
Other cash prizes and awards were presented in a variety of categories at the recent screening and awards celebration at the SELCO Gateway Financial Center in Eugene.
