It’s April 1! For many of you this signifies pranks and jokes for April Fool’s Day, but for us it signifies the start of Community Banking Month! Every April we plan a month of fun activities and celebrations to say THANK YOU to our customers and community members for supporting an independent community bank. Watch our Facebook and Instagram pages to keep tabs on the activities!

Independent community banks like First National Bank are so important because when you bank locally, you’re reinvesting in the community, contributing to the welfare of your neighbors, and building a legacy of prosperity for future generations. Community banks power the area’s small businesses and influence job growth one loan at a time. We’re rooted in our community, ensuring a stake in your financial success and the strength of the community overall. This relationship business model has allowed the bank and the communities it supports to thrive for 112 years!

We hope you will stop in during April and take part in our activities so we can thank you in person. For those of you who aren’t our customers yet, we hope you will stop in at our Hartford, Richfield or Slinger branch to learn more about banking locally, and how a community bank can help you reach your financial goals and contribute to a more vibrant and sustainable economy in our community.
