Credit unions worldwide celebrate International Credit Union Day once a year. This Oct. 18 credit unions will celebrate with the theme "Members Matter Most." There are plenty of promotional materials available to make your credit union's celebration a big hit. Here are a few resources:

• International Credit Union Day webpage -  download posters
• International Credit Union Day ideas - ways to tie in with programs and member enhancements
• CUNA International Credit Union Day - includes promotional materials

Some credit unions are spending more time producing multimedia that coincides with International Credit Union Day. Pelican State Credit Union, based in Baton Rouge, produced a video for International Credit Union Day that expressed the staff's feelings toward members.
