We're pleased to welcome you to Park Ridge Community Bank. Our goal is simple - to provide our individual and business customers with the very best in banking service and products.

Most banks in the industry are owned by large financial institutions. Their multiple branches and levels of control often report to headquarters in another city or state. Computer operations are typically in yet another location. We are privately held and are not for sale. The advantage we offer our customers stems from our courteous and competent personnel, and our technology - both of which are located on-site in Park Ridge. Our management, which represents over 50 years of banking leadership in Park Ridge, knows from experience that on-site conscientious personnel and on-site technology combine to simplify our customers' lives. As a Park Ridge Community Bank customer you can solve tough loan or simple checking account questions with a single call or visit. Everything is handled here in Park Ridge.

The officers, directors and employees of Park Ridge Community Bank are your neighbors. From the Chairman of the Board, to the tellers, to the officers - all are accessible and responsive to you. In other words, we are accountable to our customers and to our community, not to a far off management committee. Please allow us the opportunity to show you how easy it is to get the personal and professional service you so justly deserve.

Sincerely,
