Huron Valley State Bank hosted a Ribbon Cutting Ceremony and Grand Re-Opening Celebration on Tuesday, September 19 for the newest Automatic Teller Machine (ATM) located across the parking lot directly in front of Holden’s Party Store. The original ATM was attached to the storefront which was destroyed by the fire that took place on September 2, 2015. The new and improved ATM was designed to provide easy access to commuters on Milford Road and provide consumers visiting Holden’s with a convenient way to access money.

Money Smart Week, a nationally-sponsored campaign dedicated to helping families better manage their financial resources is held the last week of April. To support this program, Huron Valley State Bank hosted a poster contest for elementary age students in the Huron Valley district and presented a segment on financial literacy to families at the Highland White Lake Business Association’s Money Camp.

Huron Valley State Bank (HVSB) and three local elementary schools, Spring Mills, Johnson, and Heritage celebrated the success of the Bank-At-School program. This is a student-run bank located inside of the school that teaches hands-on financial literacy, money management, and provides for real life banking experience. Students applied and interviewed for positions earlier in the year, and were trained for actual banking positions to accept money from their fellow classmates to deposit into the bank. The schools celebrate the end of the year program with a ceremonial pizza party where all student bank customers and bankers enjoy food, fun and fellowship.

 As a community bank, the employees of Huron Valley State Bank embrace giving back to the community. The monthly “Casual for a Cause” program occurs the last Friday of every month which allows bankers to dress casually and collectively contribute to worthwhile causes. In 2016, the bank raised over $1,500 in monetary donations.
