First National Bank hosts a grand re-opening of its Bluffton branch from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., Friday, Nov. 16, according to Todd Mason, president and CEO.
The festivities will start at 11 a.m. with a ribbon cutting and presentation followed by light hors d'oeuvres, cake, giveaways. Guests will also be able to take a tour of the updated branch.
The branch remodel included new paint and flooring and seating area, the addition of a conference room for community use, an additional office and another secluded customer meeting area.
The front counter area was completely updated and now includes two cash recyclers. The cash recyclers assist staff in quickly accepting and dispensing cash all while storing it securely between transactions.
A new ATM was relocated to the drive thru lane closest to the building and a new drive thru system was installed.
“We are excited to showcase the remodel of the Bluffton office to the community,” said Mason.
“We always want our offices to offer customers ease and convenience when they do their banking and the remodel has done just that. The branch’s renovation furthers our mission of improving lives through community banking and solidifies our commitment to the Bluffton community.
"The renovation of the Bluffton Branch is a great way to end 2018 and lead into 2019 where First National Bank will celebrate its 100th anniversary.”
