SunState Federal Credit Union, has set out to recognize and reward good teachers in every county they serve. SunState is running a contest on their Facebook page, Facebook.com/SunStateFCU, encouraging people to nominate their favorite teacher to win $250 and 2 night stay at Beacher`s lodge in St. Augustine. There will be one winning teacher from each of the counties SunState serves as a community credit union: Alachua, Columbia, Dixie, Gilchrist, and Levy. "Teachers mean so much to our community, we just thought they deserved some recognition." said Brett Wachtstetter, Online Marketing Representative for SunState Federal Credit Union. "We are giving $250 to the person who nominates the winning teacher from each county and $100 to one random voter, because we want to encourage more people to show support for the great teachers taking care of our kids."
