Grand Opening in 1995
On February 8th, 1995, our bank opened its doors with one branch, twelve employees, and a mission to make a real difference in this community. About 100 local citizens took money out of their personal savings, pooled those resources, and gave of their time, expertise and determination because they believed in the advantages that a real community bank could provide. Now the proof of their conviction is all around town in new homes and office buildings, new businesses, new medical practices, new restaurants, new trucks and automobiles, and thriving non-profit agencies. At Citizens Bank we carry on the vision of our first investors with the help of our new depositors, our six additional branches and our now over 100 employees.
A Staff of Volunteers
At last count, the majority of the bank’s 103 employees volunteer in at least 48 local organizations and sit on the boards of directors of at least 19. Last year, we were honored to share part of our earnings with 69 local non-profit agencies. In the words of our original mission statement, it is all in the name of “helping the community, helping its businesses to grow and taking good care of our customers.”
A True Community Bank
Only a true community bank can share the joy of helping a neighbor start a new business, expand into new locations or move into world markets; only a community bank cares enough to make sure that the “next generation” will be able to take the reigns of a family business or renovate an old family home; only this community bank has a vested interest in this historic community, and is committed to doing all possible to preserve the continued well-being of its historic buildings, its population and its sense of self.
