Snow shoveling is one of those things that no one likes to do, but most of us have to do, living in northwest Ohio,” says Wanda Dean, MSPT of Northwest Physical Therapy.

“What often accompanies this chore is the aching back and the heating pad, making the rest of your day miserable.”  Dean said, “There are some things we can all do to prevent injury and make snow shoveling a chore that doesn’t have to cause pain.”

Here are some tips to keep you healthy and pain-free this winter while shoveling snow:

The latest BCE events have me asking myself, “am I a planner?” Both the Business Plan Competition and the latest Brown Bag Discussion on succession planning, make me realize that looking ahead comes easy at some phases in life and harder at others.

Succession Planning
When I talked to folks about the succession planning event, many said that they “should” attend. In retrospect, I imagine it feels--perhaps unconsciously--disloyal to consider that discussion. Kind of like going to see a divorce lawyer when you’re happily married!

Local bank opened its doors on Jan. 31, 1920

One-hundred years ago today – Jan. 31, 1920 – Citizens National Bank opened its doors for the first time in Bluffton.

 With $50,000 in capital and approximately four employees, it began a legacy of community banking now extending to 10 offices reaching 11 primary counties in Ohio and employing about 160 people. 

Each attendee at the 1920 opening received an apple in appreciation for their business. In honor of that tradition, all CNB offices will have apples available for its customers today.
