In January 2022, we embarked on a journey to celebrate our 100th anniversary. We set a goal of 100 Ways to Celebrate 100 Years Young. Although many of our initiatives were things that we have continuously done throughout the years, just as many were new endeavors. We are happy to announce that we met our goal! And we had so much fun along the way! Our team stayed on task and focused on our goal. We had the opportunity to collaborate with people from other departments within the bank and we learned a lot about each other. The team building that this adventure fostered is something that we will hold onto and build upon.
As we enter our next century, we want to assure you that our mission of putting our customers, employees and communities first remains as steadfast as it has been over the last 100 years. We have captured many stories about our involvement. Want to learn more about what we have done? Visit the About Us tab at the top of the page. Here you will find our Salem Community Benefit, Community Outreach and News pages. There are stories upon stories of the opportunities that we have embraced to help others.
Without our customers, we would not be here. Throughout the past year we made an extra effort to show you our appreciation. Ultimately, you were the reason for our celebration. Your loyalty throughout the years has brought us to where we are. We appreciate you. We will always strive to do what is best for you. We are here for you. We are you.
Let us continue this journey together into our next 100 years.
