Just a reminder that all Monarch Community Bank branches will be closed for Thanksgiving, but will hold regular hours on Friday, just in time to come in and get some cash for your Black Friday Shopping! Thanks for being a customer, and best wishes for a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday!

A number of Monarch employees came together to put on a dinner for 6 people, purchased at the 2009 Tibbits Auction.  The theme of the dinner was “Wild Game”.  The menu consisted of elk meatballs, crab dip, bear stew, salmon bisque, Alaskan halibut, venison and cranberries, wild turkey shish kabobs, venison and beans, and lots of good side dishes, and topped off with a New Zealand lemon cake!

Thanks to the DeGroot’s, Wright’s, and Bahlman’s for your generosity!  For Tibbits Auction this coming weekend, we’re giving a $150 gift certificate to the Boat House, 4 Tibbits Summer Theater tickets, and a basket of goodies to boot!  Auction starts at 7 p.m. at Tibbits, see you there!  Look for the Monarch team again who will be passing out popcorn during the event.
