Community Banks Working Together to Feed the Community

Lake Elmo Bank and the First State Bank & Trust have teamed up to collect food for the local food shelves.  Both community banks are opening their lobbies for collection during March – National Food Drive Month.

Throwing out a friendly wager, the Bank raising the most food will be treated to a bagel breakfast – compliments of the losing team.  Breakfast will be delivered by Bank Presidents – Dan Raleigh, Lake Elmo Bank and Pete Clements – First State Bank & Trust.

Anyone wishing to donate food is welcome to stop at any Lake Elmo or Bayport Bank location with their non-perishable food items.  All food will be donated to Valley Outreach and local food shelves.
