Calendar - Farmers Trust and Savings Bank

February 2016
Direct from Debbie
It’s hard to believe we’re already into the
second month of 2016! Our large trips are on
the calendar, and some excursions still have
room for more. We are always adding new
events so be sure to check the newsletter
and visit us online at farmerstrust.com.
New local businesses are finding their way
on to our Merchant Discount List, and
we’re always updating our Adventure Club
benefits. Participating merchants are listed on
our website-farmerstrust.com-or stop by the
bank for an updated list and card.

to enjoy the game, rain or shine. Food and restrooms are very
close, and our motor coach is able to drop off at the front
gate so walking will be minimal. What more could we ask for?
