In response to concerns and guidance regarding the Coronavirus (COVID-19) we are taking additional precautions to help protect the health of our customers and employees. 

Beginning Friday, March 20 our bank locations will begin limiting access to our bank lobbies to “by appointment only”.  Our drive-up windows, ATM Locations, night depositories and online services will continue to be available to serve your banking needs. Please be assured that this is a temporary response to extraordinary circumstances, and we will continue to monitor the ongoing situation. You will continue to have access to your funds and the bank remains strong and secure.  

We will continue to announce any updates through E-mail, Social Media, branch signage and alert local media outlets as feasible.
