Highlights & Happenings from Fairfield Federal | May 2023

Community Celebrations and Summertime Traditions

The season we have all been looking forward to is finally here! Fairfield Federal and our team have a lot of fun sponsoring and participating in special community events and we are thrilled for all that is ahead this summer.

Friday Night Bandstand is returning downtown, and we're excited to sponsor this traditional summertime concert series again this year. A link to the schedule is below.

With summer comes a few needed adjustments to downtown Lancaster traffic, so please be sure to read our street closure update in this newsletter.

If you are looking for something fun to do in the Pickerington area, be sure to check out Friday Night Flicks, sponsored by Fairfield Federal. More information is below.

Each of our offices will be hosting our annual customer appreciation days. The W. Fair Avenue Office will host a picnic with grilled hot dogs on June 9, the Main Office will serve up sandwiches on June 30, and the Pickerington Office will have a cookout on August 4.

Look for us on the Lancaster Festival Art Walk from 6 to 9 p.m. on Friday, July 21. We will be featuring the work of local artists Jim Gerken and John Marque.

In this newsletter, we are pleased to introduce one of our Pickerington Office tellers, Brittany Taylor, and to congratulate Caitlin Hurdley on her recent promotion. You can view more of our photos and items of interest on Facebook.

Enjoy your summer and all that our community has to offer.
