Scott CU Teams Up with St. Louis Cardinals

For the next three years Scott Credit Union will sponsor Major League Baseball's St. Louis Cardinals franchise, winners of 11 World Series.

The credit union in Edwardsville, Ill., said the agreement includes naming rights to the MVP Deck in left center field at Busch Stadium, scoreboard advertisements, sponsorship of the Cardinals promotional giveaway night on Aug. 26, player appearances, and a partnership with Team Fredbird at community events.

"We are extremely proud to be a partner with such a historic and successful organization," Frank Padak, SCU's president and chief executive, said in a press release. "It is exciting for us to have our organization and the Scott Credit Union brand tied to the long-running tradition of success of the St. Louis Cardinals."

SCU will also be the title sponsor of the St. Louis Cardinals Player Ticket Program that provides tickets to children from local youth organizations. The credit union also plans a ticket promotion during the season in which its members will have a chance to get tickets to a Cardinal game.
