Centennial Bank Gets Groovy at the Edison POPS at Sunset Concert

admin — Mon, 07 Nov 2011 19:16:41 +0000

Centennial Bank was a sponsor of the 16th Annual Edison POPS at Sunset Concert to benefit the Charlotte County Campus of Edison State College on Saturday, October 15. The Charlotte Symphony Orchestra’s theme this year was “Dance the Night Away.” The almost 1000 guests were encouraged to decorate their tables to add to the festive evening … and the Centennial Bank staff choose a DISCO theme!

Proceeds from the event benefit the Richard D. Yarger Charlotte POPS Scholarship Fund.

In keeping with our table theme, a sign was posted for everyone to stop by and visit the Centennial Bank DISCO! The sign was donated by a local customer – Signs-R-Us – and also included their logo for all to see.

Burn Victim Logan Nelson Receives Special Surprise

Logan Nelson’s eyes widened Tuesday when he saw what was waiting for him. And Centennial Bank operations manager Lyn Foshee was almost equally excited to make the presentation … if not more so.

The Fort Myers Softball Club recently won a co-ed tournament and donated the event’s proceeds to Logan. But not only that, they donated their purple and gold trophy.

Nine-year old Logan was severely burned in July behind his Punta Gorda home while playing with gasoline and fire. After extensive treatment at Shriner's Hospital in Cincinnati, Logan continues on his quest for a complete recovery.

“Here you go, buddy!” Foshee said as she presented the trophy in the Punta Gorda lobby of Centennial Bank. “This is almost as big as you are!”

The card attached from Angie Baker with the Fort Myers Softball Club echoed the sentiments of the entire Southwest Florida community.

“We are wishing you a speed recovery! We are all rooting for you!”

Logan Nelson’s eyes widen as Lyn Foshee of the Centennial Bank branch in Punta Gorda presents him with a trophy from the Fort Myers Softball Club.

Centennial Bank Helps Light Up Burns Park Soccer Complex With Donation

KyleProctor — Tue, 20 Apr 2010 14:05:58 +0000

Let there be light….for more soccer fields at Burns Park Soccer Complex that is. Lighting was one of the major needs the city of North Little Rock had for the park. Burns Park already boasts a great soccer park, but needed to light two remaining fields in order to have the capacity to draw larger tournaments to the region.

Frank Thomas, president for the Arkansas River Cities Sports Commission, Mayor Patrick H. Hays of North Little Rock, Bob Birch, regional president for Centennial Bank and many others met on field number one of the Burns Park Soccer Complex to formally announce the donation.

This donation will help the Burns Park Soccer Complex move much closer to their goal of lighting up two extra fields of play.
