Centennial Bank Gets Groovy at the Edison POPS at Sunset Concert

Monday, November 7th, 2011

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

Monday, October 31st, 2011

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.

NOTICE OF CHANGES IN TEMPORARY FDIC INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR TRANSACTION ACCOUNTS

All funds in a "noninterest-bearing transaction account" are insured in full by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation from December 31, 2010, through December 31, 2012. This temporary unlimited coverage is in addition to, and separate from, the coverage of at least $250,000 available to depositors under the FDIC's general deposit insurance rules.

The term "noninterest-bearing transaction account" includes a traditional checking account or demand deposit account on which the insured depository institution pays no interest. It also includes Interest on Lawyers Trust Accounts ("IOLTAs"). It does not include other accounts, such as traditional checking or demand deposit accounts that may earn interest, NOW accounts, and money-market deposit accounts.

For more information about temporary FDIC insurance coverage of transaction accounts, visit www.fdic.gov.
