We are happy to announce the 2009-2010 San Marcos High School Savings Challenge!

We are currently handing out and accepting applications for the start of the Challenge in September.

Once applications have been accepted, 5 contestants will be chosen to participate. Contestants must be San Marcos High School students and A+ FCU members. These contestants will be judged based on various criteria. These include their percentage increase in savings, successful completion of financial education courses, and more.

Winners will be announced at the SMHS Senior Awards Assembly. The grand prize winner will receive a $1000 A+ Visa gift card. Second place will receive a $500 A+ Visa gift card. Third, fourth and fifth place winners will receive a $250 A+ Visa gift card.
