Madison, Wis. (June 24, 2015) – Credit Union Magazine is now accepting nominations for Credit Union Rock Stars, its annual campaign to honor outstanding individuals in the credit union movement. Nominators have until July 15 to submit a nomination for someone they believe demonstrates creativity, leadership, ingenuity and excellence in their field and embodies the credit union spirit of “people helping people.”  

“Credit Union Rock Stars is a wonderful way to recognize the hard work and dedication of talented credit union professionals from across the country,” says Ann Hayes Peterson, Editor-in-Chief of Credit Union Magazine and VP of Publishing at CUNA. “We can’t wait to see what contributions this year’s nominees have made to the credit union movement.”  

Credit Union Magazine will profile each Credit Union Rock Star in a special edition this fall, sharing their stories with readers nationwide. Last year, the magazine recognized nearly 50 Rock Stars, honoring achievements in marketing, technology, leadership, member service, education and more. The 2015 Credit Union Rock Stars are sponsored by Fiserv.
