PHOTOS: North Shore Bank Helps People Shred their Clutter

Despite the cool, overcast weather, people stopped by branches, including the Southridge branch, Saturday for free shredding.
Over a hundred bins of paper were dumped into the shredder.
“Properly disposing of materials that contain personal information is one of the best ways to guard against identity theft,” said Peggy Theisen, security officer for North Shore Bank.
