Our story begins in 2004 with six businessmen who either banked with or worked for local financial institutions that were acquired by out-of-town concerns. These individuals - Robert Chambers, Leland Curtis, Mark Nelson, Edward Dowd, Jeffrey Schatz and the late Jon Pyzyk - saw the need for a locally owned, full-service bank dedicated to the needs of growing hometown businesses.
