The merger closed on Tuesday, January 31st and customer account conversion will occur over the weekend of June 2nd, 2023. As we approach conversion weekend, you will receive a welcome packet including details about your account and any additional banking options available to you.


The proposed merger will greatly benefit our customers and associates with the added convenience of more branches, more ATMs, and a wider array of financial solutions, including leading online and mobile banking capabilities.


Make sure your contact information is updated so your Banker has your current phone number, email address, and mailing address before conversion weekend, so you do not miss out on any important communications.
