BELLE FOURCHE—December 5 was all about celebrating customers and community at Pioneer Bank and Trust during their festive Holiday Open House and Mixer. Everyone was welcome to stop in for some Jingle, Mingle and Cheer!
The celebration started at 2 p.m. with light snacks and expanded into the early evening with heavier hors d’oeuvres of wings, brisket, meatballs and little sausages brought in by the Branding Iron Steakhouse. “We do our regular meat and cheese trays for right now and then we will have a Mixer from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. We’re going to do heavy hors d’oeuvres—which are wings and other foods and then we have the open bar—we just like to appreciate our customers and treat them like they treat us,” explained Irma Rosales, Personal Banker.
This is the fourth year the Bank is holding the special customer celebration. Each year they have planned a special way to let the consumer and community both know how much they are appreciated. This year Pioneer Bank expanded to include other businesses on State Street in their celebration.
The Bank joined together with 18 other downtown businesses to take part in the State Street Stroll. The bank sponsored a $500 gift card to one lucky participant who completes the Stroll. “We just believe in our community! We do! We’re doing the $500 gift card for celebration of all the customers in our town,” explained Rosales. “We just want our customers to be—not even our customers—but everyone to know they are appreciated!”
The afternoon open house was to make sure and catch all the customers who would be coming into the bank to do business. Perhaps they would schedule their banking during the celebration so they could do both things at one time! “We like to see our customers during this time because they come in now to bank with us and later in the evening we will have more people that come in from other businesses. Some of them might not even bank with us, but we still want them to come in, we don’t care who you are, just come have a good holiday celebration with us,” said Rosales.
