Several hundred visitors toured the newly opened Operations Center of Citizens National Bank during its Sunday open house.
The original center opened in 2001. Since that time Citizens National Bank has added five new branches, pushing the capacity of the operations center. The expansion involves an additional 15,000 square feet of space and the moving of several additional departments to the facility.
The expanded center opened in February. It now provides nearly 24 new offices for various departments of the bank.
