Barbeques, camping, road trips—summer is packed full of fun activities. but all that fun can make it easy to lose sight of your financial goals.
The temptation to spend a little extra here or there is common when you're enjoying your summer relaxation vibe. But sometimes that can cause you to overspend your budget.
Here are five tips to help stay on track with your summer spending:
Try a Staycation. Instead of going on a costly trip this summer, put on your tourist cap and find things to do close to home. Central Oregon has so much to offer and some of us have never explored the area where we work, live and play. Have you visited the High Desert Museum or the Lava Lands Visitor Center? Floated the Deschutes River? Attended one of the many concerts—some of which are even free? What about taking advantage of the amazing trail systems, parks and campgrounds? We live in an amazing area— take advantage of what it has to offer.

Fraud Prevention Tips—how to keep our children safe online
|
|
on·line safe·ty
noun
-
The act of staying safe online. It encompasses all technological devices, from PCs and laptops to smartphones and tablets, which have access to the internet.
I was visiting my four-year old nephew last weekend and when we came in from playing outside, he asked if he could watch Paw Patrol. I said yes and he promptly went to the computer, turned it on, opened up YouTube, found his show and started watching it. Although I found him to be very clever, it made me wonder what else he had access to and what parental controls, if any were in place for someone so young.
How risky is it for kids to be online?
Risks to kids vary depending on age, gender, online exposure and other factors. This could range anywhere from online bullying to accessing inappropriate websites to sharing too much personal information. Scammers have also learned that kids can be a gateway to obtaining your personal information too.
However, there are simple ways to make them aware of the online risks and help them build skills to avoid becoming a victim or opening a gateway to your family’s financial security and privacy.

You might be ready for sandy beaches and frosty drinks with umbrellas, but is your debit or credit card?
Setting your travel notification just got easier as we have added this feature to our digital banking!
If you're traveling to an area not far from home, it's unlikely that any credit card charges will be declined. However, the further you travel, the greater the chance of charges being declined. Setting up a travel notification when traveling also helps strengthen the security of your accounts and prevent fraud. Travelling can be stressful, don’t let credit card issues ruin your good time.
