Berkshire Bank Celebrates $30,000 Contest Winner

The Last Call Contest presented by WPST Radio

PITTSFIELD, MA, April 13, 2017 – Berkshire Bank, America's Most Exciting Bank®, is excited to announce Rhonda Dilatush of Trenton, NJ as the $30,000 winner of WPST Radio's The Last Call Contest. Rhonda was revealed as the winner live on air on Monday, March 27th.

The Bank partnered with WPST, a local radio station, to offer the community the chance to win cash prizes. The radio station posed 3 questions; the first individual to answer all 3 correctly would win the cash prize and the prize amount increased by $50 for each day that the questions went unanswered. After more than 2 years and the cash prize accumulating to a significant $30,000 pot, Rhonda successfully answered the questions correctly.

Rhonda was shocked and excited in her on-air acceptance of the prize winnings, stating, "this is awesome!"

Rhonda was presented with a check for her prize during a segment on air on April 10 by Jeannine Cimino, SVP, Region Operations Leader for Berkshire Bank's mid-Atlantic region.

"We are so excited that Rhonda won this incredible prize," said Jeannine Cimino. "The opportunity to partner with WPST to offer the community the chance at this prize is incredible. We are so happy to be a part of this experience."
