PORTLAND — Earlier this month at the Maine Credit Union League’s 74th Annual Meeting and Convention, the three finalists in the search for the next Young & Free spokester were announced.

According to a news release, the finalists are Alex Gray, 20, of Charleston; Kylie Keene, 22, of Old Town; and Danielle Waldron, 24, of Portland.

A public vote, as well as job suitability, will determine which one of the three will earn the role when the program’s first spokester, Seth Poplaski, completes his one-year term at the end of June. Voting at YoungFreeMaine.com is now under way and will continue until noon Thursday.

The winning contestant will represent Generation Y (ages 18 to 25) as the “spokester” for the Young & Free Maine program. Connecting with young people through social media networks, local events and more, the Young & Free Maine spokester will continue to develop entertaining educational content, and tips and tools to help members of Generation Y manage their dayto day lives and finances.

Upon selection, the Young & Free Maine spokester will participate in events throughout the year, write daily blog entries and post weekly videos to the YoungFreeMaine.com website. A job opportunity loaded with perks, the winner will also receive a smart phone with a paid contract and an Apple laptop, which the spokester will be able to keep at the end of his or her term. The spokester will also have use of the Young & Free Maine vehicle.
