The Travel Club is now in it’s fourth year. Lorenda Smith is in charge of the program.

“I’ve just been doing this for 20 years and it is one of the best parts,” she said.

According to Smith, the club helps build relationships with their customers.

“It really is a way, for our senior customers, to have a connection, and for us to build lasting relationships.” She continued, “When you travel with someone for seven days, you’re going get to know them personally. True community banking is all about the relationships… The travel club is one of the parts of my job that I enjoy the most. Being able to travel with customers, or potential customers, and build lifelong friendships in community is even more important.”

There are limited spots available for certain trips, such as the Alaska tour. For more information, as well as information on prices, discounts, loyalty rewards and future meetings, contact Smith at First National Bank.
