"It feels like small business is back in business," said Chairman, CEO & President Jeff W. Dick. "New loan opportunities are coming to us at a great pace.

The Bank reports total assets of $322 million, gross loans of $256 million and total deposits of $288.4 million. The Bank remains very well capitalized. Loan quality remains very strong.
