“Lights, Camera, Save!” teen video contest underway at Grundy Bank

Grundy Bank is accepting submissions for its “Lights, Camera, Save!” video contest, which was organized by the American Bankers Association to encourage teens to communicate the value of sound money management to their peers.

“Lights, Camera, Save! gives local students an opportunity to harness their creativity, learn about using money wisely and communicate those lessons with their peers,“ said Kevin Olson, President & CEO of Grundy Bank. “A strong financial education is critical to a successful future and we are thrilled to participate in a contest that reinforces that message.”

To participate, students ages 13-18 must create a video, 30-seconds or less, on using money wisely and submit a link to the video along with a completed entry form to the bank by Dec. 1, 2023. The contest is open to filmmakers of all experience.

Grundy Bank will host the first round of judging and select a winner to compete on the national level for one of three cash prizes, including $5,000 for first place, $2,500 for second place and $1,000 for third place. National contestants will face off head-to head in the first round of national judging on https://www.instagram.com/americanbankersassociation/” which will determine which videos advance to the second round of national judging.

Videos will be judged on their quality, message, content and the criteria set forth by the content’s official rules.
