Howard-Suamico universal banker Brittany Gay won the sweepstakes for Elan’s “Choose Your Journey” promotion, which ran through October and November last year, snagging herself a $500 gift card for Hotels.com.

For the promotion, bank employees competed to open the most Elan credit card accounts. El Rey personal banker Karina Reyes led the top performers, activating 25 accounts and earning a $250 gift card.

The other top performers were Bayshore personal banker Rhonda Mckinnie (18 accounts, $200 gift card), El Rey assistant branch manager–sales Maria Castro (13, $150), Pulaski universal banker Terri Poradek (11, $100), and Sussex personal banker Mariella Zarb (9, $75).

Sweepstakes winners were chosen randomly from the pool of employees who successfully opened an account during the promotion. The other winners were Southridge universal banker Nisreen Mseitif, who won a camera, and Allouez and Green Bay East area branch manager Mickey Adams, Brookfield Square teller supervisor Carmen Maurer, and Cudahy branch manager Ray Guardiola, who each received an Amazon gift card.

“I travel a lot, so this will be great!” said Brittany — pictured up top with branch manager Katie Presser at left and district manager Kerri Collins at right — of her grand prize. “I think I am going to go to Wisconsin Dells with it, and probably book a night at the Tundra Lodge here in town as well. I can’t wait!”
