We have greatly improved the overall awareness of the bank in all sectors of the Macomb community over the last few years. Our staff is active in the business and residential segments, as well as with local government, colleges, public schools and retirees.

In 2004, we sponsored community breakfast meetings where local government representatives in Macomb County were able to communicate directly with constituents and businesses. For the third year in a row, we also sponsored a popular economic luncheon speaker series, which was well attended by existing and potential clients.

Enhancing our community commitment further, we are also offering financial education programs for interested people in our area, as well as residential mortgage classes for first-time home buyers.

We also enhanced our bank board last year by adding two directors who are leaders in their professions: attorney Peter J. Lucido and hospital executive Barbara W. Rossman.

Local residents, businesses and the media, we find, are receptive to a bank that is based in the heart of their community. Our staff and members of our board of directors are from the community and have the township’s best interests in mind.

We are eager to meet the challenges of growing our bank and increasing earnings through excellent customer service and traditional banking channels, as well as through government-guaranteed lending, Internet-based products and services, and trust and investment services. We will also maintain a high level of community involvement because Macomb is our community too.
