OSWEGO, NY (July 16, 2024) – Oswego Speedway’s Compass Federal Credit Union Autograph Night will take place this Saturday, July 20, featuring the ‘Compass 500’ Big Wheel Race just prior to the night’s racing action.
The ‘Compass 500’ will see a more than a half dozen of Compass FCU’s Bank at School students take part in the 500 foot race to the speedway’s start/finish line. Students were chosen at random to participate based on their monthly support of the Compass FCU Bank at School program during the school year.
All Oswego City School District schools take part in the program, as well as Fairgrieve Elementary School in Fulton.
Running each year from October to May, the Compass Federal Credit Union Bank at School program offers students an opportunity to deposit money into their own account. The program provides real-world, hands-on banking experiences for students at any grade level and helps them to understand the benefits of saving money.
As part of the program, Compass opens a free account for students who choose to participate. On “Bank Days”, students who participate and deposit money into savings are able to choose a prize for the day and are also entered into a chance for a variety of year-end prizes, including a chance inside the Compass Cash Vault and now, an opportunity to take part in the ‘Compass 500.’
Confirmed participants on Saturday include Carter Dunsmore, Delaney Shuman, Brynn Partin, Miles Tamayo, Mina Lautensack, Bentley McGann and Addison Mathew.
Each participant will use a brand new big wheel provided by Compass FCU, which they will be able to take home at the end of the night. All participants also receive a family four pack of tickets to the night’s racing, courtesy of Compass FCU.
