Indianapolis, Ind. — The USTA/Midwest Section today announced the launch of an image campaign that will begin to run in June aimed at highlighting how USTA memberships may impact local communities, and the goodwill created by supporting the USTA/Midwest Section through membership.

The image campaign will include the following primary components:

“The new image campaign will illustrate how USTA membership may positively impact the lives of countless groups of people in USTA programs, as well as make a difference in an individual’s life,” said Steve Butzlaff, USTA/Midwest Section President. “It also reminds us how the USTA/Midwest Section plays a critical role in helping to create this impact for individuals of all ages.”
