Quarterly e-newsletter                                            April/May/June 2020

Dear GCSB Heritage Club Members,      
 
This Spring is coming in like a lion. Not because of our weather but because of the Coronavirus/COVID-19 pandemic. We are adhering to the restrictions that have been communicated to the public; therefore, please note that we have many trip plans changing as outlined in this newsletter. Brighter days are ahead as this threat passes and we will once again be able to travel and have our quarterly events. We care about your safety!
 
Vicki & Kim
 
Please note the Guthrie County State Bank lobby will be closed until further notice, however, the drive-up is open for your banking needs in both Panora and Guthrie Center bank branches.
 
Please note that Guthrie County State Bank will be closed:
May 25 - Memorial Day 
Next Quarterly Social Event
Our next social event was going to be held at Boulder Beach at Lake Panorama in June. It was decided to move this event until sometime in the fall. Watch your upcoming newsletters, our website and our Facebook page for a rescheduled time and place.

February Social Event   

We had a lot of fun at our February 12 Valentine themed social event. Forty-three GCSB Heritage Club members came and we had three guests attend. Joanne Zieser was the winner of the $50.00 for bringing Lillien Gilson as her guest. Congratulations, Joanne!  
 
Our speaker couldn't make it, so we had team members Kelly and Donna talk about some of the bank's products and answered questions from our GCSB Heritage Club members. Refreshments we re served!
